TERRORISM (HIGH RISK OFFENDERS) ACT 2017 - SECT 28
Term of interim supervision order
(1) An interim supervision order commences on the day fixed in the order for
its commencement (or if no such day is fixed, as soon as it is made) and
expires at the end of-- (a) such period (not exceeding 28 days 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.
(2) However, the Supreme Court
may defer the operation of an interim supervision order in relation to an
eligible offender who is in current custody for a period of up to 7 days (the
"deferral period" ) if-- (a) the Court considers that it is necessary to
detain the 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 offender.
(3) On the deferral of the operation of an
interim supervision order, the Supreme Court may order that the
eligible offender concerned be detained for a specified period (not exceeding
the deferral period) after the offender's current custody expires.
(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
interim supervision order, and the eligible offender's obligations under that
interim supervision order, are suspended during any period the offender is in
lawful custody, whether under this or any other Act or law.
(7) An
interim supervision order may be renewed from time to time, but not so as to
provide for the supervision of the eligible offender under such an order for
periods totalling more than 3 months.
(8) Any day or part of a day on which
an interim supervision order is suspended does not count towards the 3-month
limit referred to in subsection (7).
