Bail Act 2013

A relevant bail authority before which an accused person is brought or appears may, if satisfied that the person has failed or was about to fail to comply with a bail acknowledgment or a bail condition—

release the person on the person’s original bail, or

vary the bail decision that applies to the person.

Note.

The power to vary a bail decision includes a power to revoke the bail decision and substitute a new bail decision—section 4 (3) (a).

(Repealed)

Part 3 applies to the exercise by the bail authority of its functions under this section.

However, a bail authority may revoke or refuse bail under this section even if the offence is an offence for which there is a right of release under Part 3. An offence ceases to be an offence for which there is a right to release if bail is revoked or refused under this section.

An authorised justice must not make a decision under this section in relation to bail.

In this section, a relevant bail authority means—

(Repealed)

the Local Court, or

a court before which the person is required to appear by his or her bail acknowledgment.
