Criminal Code Act 1995

If the issuing court, by the order, imposes on the person the condition referred to in paragraph 104.5A(2)(d) (the monitoring condition) that the person wear a monitoring device, then:

the monitoring condition must require the person to wear the monitoring device at all times; and

the order must include the condition referred to in paragraph 104.5A(2)(e); and

the order must include a condition that the person do all of the following:

allow a specified authority to enter the person’s residence at any reasonable time for any purpose relating to the electronic monitoring of the person;

allow a specified authority to install, repair or fit the monitoring device or any related monitoring equipment;

take the steps specified in the order (if any) and any other reasonable steps to ensure that the monitoring device and any related monitoring equipment are or remain in good working order;

if the person becomes aware that the monitoring device and any related monitoring equipment are not in good working order—notify a specified authority as soon as reasonably practicable;

allow a specified authority, police officer or corrective services officer to remove the monitoring device;

allow a police officer to remove any related monitoring equipment.

After including the monitoring condition in the order, the issuing court must also include in the order an authorisation for:

one or more specified authorities to enter the person’s residence as specified in the order at any reasonable time for any purpose relating to the electronic monitoring of the person; and

one or more specified authorities to install, repair or fit the monitoring device and any related monitoring equipment; and

one or more specified authorities or police officers to take the steps specified in the order to ensure that the device and any related monitoring equipment are or remain in good working order; and

one or more specified authorities, police officers or corrective services officers to remove the monitoring device; and

one or more police officers to remove any related monitoring equipment.

If:

a monitoring device is installed on the person; and

any of the following events occurs:

the monitoring condition is removed from the order;

the order ceases to be in force;

the person is detained in custody;

For the definition of detained in custody, see subsection 100.1(1).

Before exercising a power referred to in paragraph (2)(a), (b), (d) or (e), or subsection (3), a specified authority, police officer or corrective services officer must inform the person:

that the device and equipment are to be installed, repaired, fitted or removed (as the case requires); and

of the proposed timing of the taking of the action; and

that the person may consent to the taking of the action; and

that if consent is not given, reasonable force may be used to take the action, or to enter the person’s residence in order to take the action.

If the person does not give consent, reasonable force may be used by a police officer to take the action, or to enter the person’s residence in order to take the action.
