Community Protection (Offender Reporting) Act 2005

A reportable offender who is required to comply with the reporting obligations imposed by this Part for the remainder of his or her life may apply to a magistrate for an order suspending his or her reporting obligations if – a period of 15 years has passed (ignoring any period during which the reportable offender was in government custody) since he or she was last sentenced or released from government custody in respect of a reportable offence or a corresponding reportable offence, whichever is later; and he or she did not become the subject of a lifelong reporting period under a corresponding Act while in a foreign jurisdiction before becoming the subject of such a period in Tasmania; and he or she is not on parole in respect of a reportable offence.

A reportable offender, other than a reportable offender referred to in subsection (1), may apply to a magistrate for an order suspending his or her reporting obligations if – the reportable offender has complied with the reporting obligations imposed on the offender for at least three-quarters of the period for which the offender was required to meet those obligations; and he or she is not on parole in respect of a reportable offence.
