under the
Sentencing Act 1989
His Excellency the Governor, with the advice of the Executive Council, has made the following Regulation under the Sentencing Act 1989.
BOB DEBUS, M.P.,

Explanatory note
The object of this Regulation is to amend the Sentencing (General) Regulation 1996 so that the particulars of a parole order in relation to a single warrant issued in respect of more than one conviction or order may be detailed on one form. This amendment is made as a consequence of the amendments made to sections 87 and 88 of the Justices Act 1902 by the Courts Legislation Amendment Act 1996. Those amendments make it clear that a single warrant may be issued in respect of more than one conviction or order.
This Regulation is made under the Sentencing Act 1989, including section 55
(the general regulation-making power), in particular section 55 (l) (b).
