Cessation of approval
62 Cessation of approval
The approval of the suspension of a reportable offender’s reporting obligations under this Division ceases to have effect if, at any time after the suspension, the reportable offender —
is made subject to a reporting order or a protection order; or
is found guilty of a reportable offence; or
becomes a corresponding reportable offender who must under section 49 continue to comply with the reporting obligations imposed by this Part for any period.
The approval of the suspension of a reportable offender’s reporting obligations under this Division also ceases to have effect if the Commissioner —
is no longer satisfied that the reportable offender does not pose a risk to the lives or the sexual safety of one or more persons, or persons generally; and
gives the reportable offender written notice to that effect.
The approval of the suspension of a reportable offender’s reporting obligations that ceased to have effect in accordance with subsection (1) is revived if —
the finding of guilt that caused the approval to cease to have effect is quashed or set aside by a court; or
the approval ceased to have effect in accordance with subsection (1)(a) and —
the a reporting order or protection order is quashed on appeal; or
in the case of a reporting order — the finding of guilt in respect of the offence that resulted in the making of that order is quashed or set aside by a court.
For the purposes of this section, it is irrelevant whether or not a person may lodge, or has lodged, an appeal in respect of a finding of guilt or a reporting order or protection order.
