Bail Act 2013

A bail agreement entered into under the 1978 Act and in force immediately before the repeal of that Act continues to have effect.

Anything an accused person is required to do or to refrain from doing under the bail agreement is taken, on that repeal, to be a bail condition.

A court or authorised justice may vary the requirements of the bail agreement in the same way as a bail condition (including by releasing the accused person from any of the requirements of the bail agreement).

To avoid doubt, subclauses (2) and (3) do not apply to the bail undertaking given to a court under section 34 of the 1978 Act.

In this clause, bail agreement means an agreement entered into by an accused person in compliance with a condition of bail granted under the 1978 Act, other than a security agreement.
