    1. (a)

      any of the following applies:

      1. (i)

        an application is made in accordance with section 105A.5 for an extended supervision order in relation to a terrorist offender;

      2. (ii)

        an application is made in accordance with section 105A.5 for a continuing detention order in relation to a terrorist offender, and the Court is not satisfied as mentioned in paragraph 105A.7(1)(b) or (c) (or both);

      3. (iii)

        the Court has reviewed under section 105A.12 a continuing detention order in relation to a terrorist offender and the Court is not satisfied as mentioned in paragraph 105A.12(4)(a); and

    2. (b)

      after having regard to matters in accordance with section 105A.6B, the Court is satisfied on the balance of probabilities, on the basis of admissible evidence, that the offender poses an unacceptable risk of committing a serious Part 5.3 offence; and

    3. (c)

      the Court is satisfied on the balance of probabilities that:

      1. (i)

        each of the conditions; and

      2. (ii)

        the combined effect of all of the conditions;

    to be imposed on the offender by the order is reasonably necessary, and reasonably appropriate and adapted, for the purpose of protecting the community from that unacceptable risk.

Determining whether conditions are reasonably necessary, appropriate and adapted

  1. (2)

    For the purposes of paragraph (1)(c), in determining whether each of the conditions to be imposed on the offender by the order is reasonably necessary, and reasonably appropriate and adapted, the Court must take into account, as a paramount consideration in all cases, the object of this Division (see section 105A.1).

Onus of satisfying Court

  1. (3)

    The AFP Minister bears the onus of satisfying the Court of the matters referred to in paragraphs (1)(b) and (c).

Court may make successive extended supervision orders

  1. (5)

    To avoid doubt, paragraph (4)(d) does not prevent a Supreme Court of a State or Territory making an extended supervision order in relation to a terrorist offender that begins to be in force immediately after a previous extended supervision order, or continuing detention order, in relation to the offender ceases to be in force.

Automatic revocation of continuing detention orders etc.

  1. (6)

    A continuing detention order or interim detention order that is in force in relation to a terrorist offender is revoked by force of this subsection if:

    1. (a)

      a Court makes an extended supervision order in relation to the offender; and

    2. (b)

      the continuing detention order or interim detention order is in force immediately before the extended supervision order begins to be in force.

(1A) If the terrorist offender is subject to an order under a law of a State or Territory that is equivalent to a post‑sentence order, the Court must consider the conditions under that State or Territory order in imposing conditions in accordance with subsection (1).

Making an interim supervision order

    1. (a)

      either:

    2. (b)

      the Court is satisfied that any of the following relating to the offender will end before the application for the continuing detention order or extended supervision order has been determined:

      1. (i)

        a sentence of imprisonment referred to in subsection 105A.3A(1) or paragraph 105A.3A(3)(a), (4)(a), (5)(d) or (7)(a);

      the Court is satisfied that there are reasonable grounds for considering that an extended supervision order will be made in relation to the offender; and

    4. (d)

      the Court is satisfied that there are reasonable grounds for considering that each of the conditions to be imposed on the offender by the order under this subsection is reasonably necessary, and reasonably appropriate and adapted, for the purpose of protecting the community from the unacceptable risk of the terrorist offender committing a serious Part 5.3 offence.

    Note: A series of interim supervision orders can be made in relation to a person (see subsection (8)).

  2. (5)

    For the purposes of paragraph (4)(d), in determining whether each of the conditions to be imposed on the offender by the order is reasonably necessary, and reasonably appropriate and adapted, the Court must take into account, as a paramount consideration in all cases, the object of this Division (see section 105A.1).

Effect of an interim supervision order

  1. (6)

    The effect of an interim supervision order is to impose on the offender, for the period the order is in force, conditions contravention of which may be an offence.

    1. (a)

      that the Court is satisfied of the matters mentioned in paragraphs (4)(b) to (d); and

      the matters mentioned in paragraphs 105A.7A(4)(b), (c) and (e); and

    3. (c)

      the period during which the order is in force, which must be a period of no more than 28 days that the Court is satisfied is reasonably necessary to determine the application for the continuing detention order or extended supervision order.

    Note: The order may be suspended during the period that it is in force if the offender is detained in custody in a prison (see section 105A.18C).

  2. (8)

    The total period of all interim supervision orders made in relation to the offender before the Court makes a decision on the application for the continuing detention order or extended supervision order must not be more than 3 months, unless the Court is satisfied that there are exceptional circumstances.
