### sec.19 When periodic reports must be made
A reportable offender must make a periodic report in each reporting month, starting in the first reporting month after the offender makes the offender’s initial report.
However, the police commissioner may at any time require the reportable offender to make periodic reports more frequently, if the commissioner is reasonably satisfied more frequent periodic reporting is necessary to protect the lives or sexual safety of children.
If the police commissioner decides to require the reportable offender to make periodic reports more frequently, the commissioner must, as soon as reasonably practicable, give the offender a reporting obligations notice stating when the offender is required to make periodic reports.
