57 Additional provisions relating to completion and non-completion of outcome plans

(1) A notice that a child has failed to satisfactorily complete an outcome plan given to the person or body that referred the matter for a conference is to be accompanied by a report from the conference convenor concerning the conference and may be accompanied by such other reports and recommendations as the conference administrator thinks fit.
Note : If the Children's Court releases a child on condition that the child complies with an outcome plan, and the child fails to comply with the outcome plan, an authorised justice may issue a summons or warrant for the arrest of the child (see section 41 of the Children (Criminal Proceedings) Act 1987 ). A person or body may continue or commence proceedings against a child if the child fails to satisfactorily complete an outcome plan (see section 64 of this Act).
(2) A court that referred a matter for a conference without making a finding that the child concerned was guilty of an offence must dismiss under this subsection a charge against a child on receiving notice that an outcome plan relating to the offence concerned has been satisfactorily completed by the child.
