Good behaviour orders—community service—concurrent and consecutive orders
92 Good behaviour orders—community service—concurrent and consecutive orders
This section applies if the offender is currently subject to a community service condition under a good behaviour order (an existing order).
If the court makes a further good behaviour order that includes a community service condition (a new order), the court may direct that the hours of community service work to be performed by the offender under the new order run concurrently or consecutively, or partly concurrently and partly consecutively, with the hours of community service work remaining to be performed under the existing order.
However, the total of the hours to be performed under the new order and those remaining to be performed under the existing order must not be more than 500.
For a young offender, the maximum is 200 hours (see s 133L).
