Public Guardian Act 2014

This section applies if there is a change in the criminal history of a community visitor.

The community visitor must immediately disclose the details of the change to the public guardian.

The disclosure under subsection (2) must be in the approved form.

The information disclosed about a conviction or charge in the visitor’s criminal history must include—

the existence of the conviction or charge; and

when the offence was committed or alleged to have been committed; and

the details of the offence or alleged offence; and

for a conviction—whether or not a conviction was recorded and the sentence imposed on the visitor.

For a community visitor who does not have a criminal history, there is taken to be a change to the visitor’s criminal history if the visitor acquires a criminal history.
