Exemption from ongoing reporting of reportable contact with child
33B Exemption from ongoing reporting of reportable contact with child
The Commissioner may, by written notice, exempt a reportable offender from the requirement to report reportable contact with a child under section 33A if the offender has given reportable contact details in relation to reportable contact and likely reportable contact with the child to the Commissioner.
In deciding whether to grant an exemption, the Commissioner must take into account the following —
whether the reportable offender normally lives with the child;
how frequently the reportable offender has reportable contact, or is likely to have reportable contact, with the child;
the nature of the reportable contact with the child;
any other matter the Commissioner considers relevant.
The exemption has effect from the time the notice under subsection (1) is given to the offender or from any later date specified in the notice.
The Commissioner may revoke a reportable offender’s exemption at any time by giving written notice to the offender.
The revocation has effect from the time the notice is given to the offender under subsection (4).
This section is in addition to, and does not limit, any other provision which provides for an exemption or suspension of a reporting obligation.
