20A Imposition of bail conditions

(1) Bail conditions are to be imposed only if the bail authority is satisfied, after assessing bail concerns under this Division, that there are identified bail concerns.

(2) A bail authority may impose a bail condition only if the bail authority is satisfied that—

(a) the bail condition is reasonably necessary to address a bail concern, and

(b) the bail condition is reasonable and proportionate to the offence for which bail is granted, and

(c) the bail condition is appropriate to the bail concern in relation to which it is imposed, and

(d) the bail condition is no more onerous than necessary to address the bail concern in relation to which it is imposed, and

(e) it is reasonably practicable for the accused person to comply with the bail condition, and

(f) there are reasonable grounds to believe that the condition is likely to be complied with by the accused person.

(3) This section does not limit a power of a court to impose enforcement conditions.

Note.

Enforcement conditions are imposed for the purpose of monitoring or enforcing compliance with other bail conditions. Section 30 provides for this type of bail condition.
