Effect of proposed order to be explained to offender
137 Effect of proposed order to be explained to offender
Before making a supervised release order in respect of a person, the Board is required to explain, or cause to be explained, to the person in language likely to be readily understood by the person —
the purpose and effect of the order; and
the consequences that may follow failure to comply with the order or with any of the prescribed requirements; and
the right of the person to seek the reconsideration of the order.
If requested to do so, the person in respect of whom the order is made and any responsible adult who is present when the order is made are required to sign a written acknowledgement, endorsed on a copy of the order, to the effect that the order was made with the required consent and its purpose and effect are understood, but the fact that in a particular case such an acknowledgement may not have been signed does not postpone or otherwise alter the effect of the order.
