Variation or revocation of control order
34 Variation or revocation of control order
The Supreme Court may vary or revoke a control order on application by the Commissioner or the controlled person (each of whom is a party).
However, an application for variation or revocation of a control order may only be made by the controlled person with the leave of the
Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court may grant leave under subsection (2) only if satisfied there has been a substantial change in the relevant circumstances since the control order was made or last varied.
An application for variation or revocation of a control order made by the controlled person must be supported by oral evidence given on oath.
A party who makes an application under this section must, within
7 days of making the application, serve a copy of it on the other party.
Before varying or revoking a control order, the Supreme Court must allow the parties a reasonable opportunity to be heard on the matter.
