26 Full-time detention in ACT or NSW
(1) The director-general must arrange for a full-time detainee to be kept
in full-time detention at—
(a) an ACT correctional centre; or
(b) a NSW correctional centre.
(2) For this section, the director-general may, in writing, direct that a
full-time detainee—
(a) be detained at the ACT correctional centre stated in the
direction; or
(b) be removed to a NSW correctional centre stated in the direction.
Note The reference to an ACT correctional centre is, in relation to a
CYP young offender, a reference to a detention place under the Children
and Young People Act 2008. A CYP young offender is a young offender
required under the Crimes (Sentencing) Act 2005, section 133H to serve
his or her sentence of imprisonment at a detention place (see this Act,
s 320C).
