Procedure for visits
31 Procedure for visits
The centre manager may determine the procedure to be observed by detainees and visitors during visits.
A detainee may not be visited by any person unless that person has made arrangements with the centre manager for that purpose.
A visit to a detainee may, with the consent of the Secretary or the centre manager, take place outside the sight and hearing of a juvenile justice officer.
However, a visit to a detainee by a police officer in the course of the police officer’s official duties must take place within the sight and hearing of a juvenile justice officer.
The Secretary may permit a person—
to visit a detention centre, and
to conduct research in the centre, and
to be afforded facilities to interview, talk to and examine any detainee (but only with the detainee’s consent) outside the sight and hearing of a juvenile justice officer.
