In this section and section 77 —

An offender must comply with the lawful orders or directions of any CCO.
An offender who under a community corrections order is required —
to do community work —
must do such community work as the manager of a centre determines and directs; and
must do that work to the satisfaction of the person supervising the work;
to do community corrections activities —
must do such community corrections activities as the manager of a centre determines and directs; and
must do those activities to the satisfaction of the person supervising them.
An offender who under a pre‑sentence order or a community corrections order is at a centre, or is doing community work or community corrections activities, or is performing any requirement of a programme requirement applicable to the offender —
must not be in possession of, use, or be under the influence of alcohol, a drug (other than a drug prescribed for him or her), glue, petrol or any other substance capable of adversely affecting a person; and
must, if so directed by the manager of a centre, submit to testing for any substance referred to in paragraph (a); and
must not disturb or interfere with another offender doing anything under a community corrections order; and
must not commit any act or omission of insubordination or misconduct that is subversive of the good order or management of a centre or of the conduct of anything required to be done under a community corrections order; and
must not assault, threaten, insult or use abusive language to a member of the departmental staff; and
must comply with any prescribed obligations; and
must comply with any written instructions issued by the CEO under section 86.
A CCO is to ensure, so far as is practicable, that orders given to an offender do not —
conflict with the offender’s religious or cultural beliefs; or
result in interference with the times, if any, when the offender normally works or attends an educational or vocational training establishment.
