Day leave
60 Day leave
A person subject to control may be granted day leave only if—
in the case of a person who is being detained for a serious children’s indictable offence and who is serving a detention period of more than 2 years—there is 12 months or less left until the person’s earliest release date, or
in the case of a classified person who is being detained for an indictable offence (not being a person to whom paragraph (a) applies)—the person has served at least one third of the person’s detention period, or
in the case of any other person subject to control—the person has served at least one quarter of the person’s detention period.
Despite subclause (1), the Secretary may grant day leave to a person subject to control at any time if the Secretary is satisfied that exceptional circumstances justify the grant of day leave.
Note.
The granting of day leave to persons on remand is dealt with in section 23 (2) of the Act.
