4A Domestic violence offenders--requirement for full-time detention or supervision

(1) If a court finds a person guilty of a domestic violence offence, the court must impose on the person either--
(a) a sentence of full-time detention, or
(b) a supervised order.
(2) However, the court is not required to impose either of those sentencing options if the court is satisfied that a different sentencing option is more appropriate in the circumstances and gives reasons for reaching that view.
(3) For the purposes of this section, a
"supervised order" is an order (being an intensive correction order, community correction order or conditional release order) that is subject to a supervision condition.
