Penalties and Sentences Act 1992

This Act applies to any sentence imposed after the commencement of this section, irrespective of when the offence was committed.

However, this Act (the original Act) as in force immediately before the commencement of the Penalties and Sentences Legislation Amendment Act 1993 (the amending Act) continues to apply to sentences imposed after the commencement of the original Act and before the commencement of the amending Act.

An offender in relation to whom a sentence is in force immediately before the commencement of this section continues to be subject to the requirements of the sentence in all respects as if this Act had not been enacted.

A sentence mentioned in subsection (3) may be amended, and any failure to comply with it may be dealt with, under this Act as it if were a sentence imposed after the commencement of this section.

For the purposes of this section, a sentence imposed by an appeal court after the commencement of this section, on setting aside a sentencing order made before the commencement, is taken to have been imposed at the time the original sentencing order was made.

If an offender fails to comply with a requirement of a sentence mentioned in subsection (3) that is not amended under subsection (4), the failure may be dealt with under this Act as if the sentence were a sentence imposed after the commencement of this section.
