Corrective Services Act 2006

The chief executive may amend or revoke a visitor’s access approval for a corrective services facility if the chief executive is satisfied that, because of a change in the visitor’s circumstances, the visitor poses a risk to the security or good order of the corrective services facility.

In deciding whether to amend or revoke the access approval, the chief executive must consider—

the effect of the proposed amendment or revocation on a child for whom approval has been given to accompany the visitor to visit the prisoner; and

whether the child may, unaccompanied by an adult, visit the prisoner.

If the chief executive revokes the access approval, the chief executive must ensure a written record is made stating the reasons for the decision.

If the chief executive amends or revokes the access approval, the visitor may, in writing, ask the chief executive to reconsider the decision.

The chief executive must reconsider the decision and may confirm or cancel the decision.

The chief executive must advise the visitor of the reconsidered decision.

In this section—amend, a visitor’s access approval, means amend a condition of the access approval or impose a condition on it.
