TERRORISM (HIGH RISK OFFENDERS) ACT 2017 - SECT 26
Term of extended supervision order
(1) An extended supervision order commences when it is made, or when the
eligible offender's current custody or supervision expires, whichever is the
later.
(2) However the Supreme Court may, if an extended supervision order is
made in proceedings on an application for a continuing detention order, defer
the operation of an extended supervision order for a period of up to 7 days
(the
"deferral period" ) if-- (a) the Court considers that it is necessary to
detain the eligible offender for the deferral period to enable arrangements to
be made for supervision of the offender in the community, and
(b) it does not
appear to the Court that an interim detention order can be made for the
interim detention of the eligible offender.
(3) On the deferral of the
operation of an extended supervision order, the Supreme Court may order that
the eligible offender concerned be detained for such period (not exceeding the
deferral period) after the offender's current custody expires as is specified
in the order.
(4) As soon as practicable after making an order under
subsection (3), the Supreme Court must issue a warrant for the committal of
the eligible offender for the specified period after the offender's current
custody expires.
(5) The warrant is sufficient authority for the
eligible offender to be kept in custody in accordance with the terms of the
warrant.
(6) An extended supervision order expires at the end of-- (a) such
period (not exceeding 3 years from the day on which it commences) as is
specified in the order, or
(b) if the order is suspended for any period, the
period specified in paragraph (a) plus each period during which the order is
suspended.
(7) An eligible offender's obligations under an
extended supervision order are suspended while the offender is in lawful
custody, whether under this or any other Act or law.
(8) Nothing in this
section prevents the Supreme Court from making a second or subsequent
extended supervision order in respect of the same eligible offender.
