Release from detention after failure to comply with requirement to remain at a place
An individual who has been detained under section 103 for failing to comply with a requirement to remain at a place under section 68 must be released at the end of the 6‑hour period referred to in section 68.
Release from detention after failure to comply with isolation measure
An individual who has been detained under section 103 for failing to comply with an isolation measure must be released from detention at the earlier of the following times:
the time when the person has been taken to a place, in accordance with subsection 104(2), at the medical facility specified in the human biosecurity control order that is in force in relation to the individual;
the time when the individual is no longer required to comply with an isolation measure under subsection 74(4).
An individual is required to comply with an isolation measure for only 72 hours, unless the Director of Human Biosecurity gives a direction under section 72 (see subsection 74(4)).
To avoid doubt, an individual may be required to remain isolated at the medical facility even after the individual has been released from detention.
