Community Protection (Offender Reporting) Act 2004

A protection order may prohibit conduct of any of the following kinds —

associating with or other contact with specified persons or kinds of persons;

being in specified locations or kinds of locations;

residing at a specified place;

a person changing the place where the person generally resides (as described in section 29A(1)) without first having obtained the permission of the Commissioner to do so;

travelling out of Australia without first having obtained the permission of the Commissioner to do so;

consuming or using alcohol, drugs or other specified substances;

engaging in other specified behaviour;

being in specified employment or employment of a specified kind.

Subsection (1) does not limit the kinds of conduct that may be prohibited by a protection order.

A protection order may prohibit conduct absolutely or on the terms that the court considers appropriate.

A protection order may prohibit a person from entering or remaining in a place, including a place where the person resides, even if the person has a legal or equitable right to be at the place.

If a court makes a protection order that imposes a prohibition referred to in subsection (4) and the court is satisfied that it is necessary to do so, the court must ensure that the order provides for the person in respect of whom the order is made to recover personal property, or other property prescribed, from a place specified in the order —

in the manner set out in the order; or

in accordance with procedures prescribed.

A protection order may, in addition to or instead of prohibiting conduct, impose requirements on a reportable offender as the court considers appropriate to reduce the risk posed by the reportable offender to the lives or sexual safety of one or more children, or children generally.
