Community Protection (Offender Reporting) Act 2004

Section 67 does not apply in relation to a reportable offender if the Commissioner gives the offender written notice of the following before commencement day —

the reporting obligations the offender will have under this Act as in force on commencement day; and

the reporting period the offender will have under this Act as in force on commencement day; and

the consequences that may arise if the offender fails to comply with those obligations under this Act as in force on commencement day.

However, section 67 applies in relation to a reportable offender who has been given notice under subsection (1) if any of the following occurs on or after commencement day —

the offender is sentenced for a reportable offence or is made subject to a reporting order;

the offender is released from government custody (whether or not the offender was in government custody for a reportable offence);

the offender enters Western Australia, if the offender has not previously been given notice of the offender’s reporting obligations in Western Australia;

the offender becomes a corresponding reportable offender, if the offender is in Western Australia at that time.

Section 69 does not apply in relation to changes to a reportable offender’s reporting period on commencement day if the Commissioner gives the offender written notice before commencement day of the changed reporting period that the offender will have under this Act as in force on commencement day.
