Bail Act 1982

If an electronic monitoring condition has been imposed as a condition on a grant of bail to an accused the CEO (corrections) may, in the CEO’s absolute discretion, by instrument signed by the CEO and if practicable given to the accused, revoke the bail.

Without limiting subsection (1), the power to revoke bail may be exercised if the accused —

is not likely to comply with any requirement of the accused’s bail undertaking mentioned in section 28(2)(a) or (b); or

is, or has been, or is likely to be in breach of any condition of the accused’s bail undertaking mentioned in section 28(2)(c).

Subject to subsection (4), if the CEO (corrections) revokes bail the CEO must include a statement of the CEO’s reasons for the cancellation in the instrument cancelling the bail.

If the CEO (corrections) is of the opinion that it would be in the interest of the accused or any other person, or the public, to withhold from the accused any or all of the reasons referred to in subsection (3), the CEO may so withhold the reason or reasons.

If the CEO (corrections) revokes bail, the CEO may, whenever necessary, issue a warrant directed to all members of the Police Force to have the accused arrested and brought before an appropriate judicial officer.
