For holding the offender at a corrective services facility—
the offender is taken to be a prisoner under the Corrective Services Act 2006 ; and
any rights, liberties or immunities of the offender as a detainee under this Act in relation to the child offence are not preserved, transferred or otherwise applicable for the offender as a prisoner; and
if the offender is serving a period of detention, or liable to serve a period of detention—
the offender is liable to serve a term of imprisonment equal to the period of detention the offender remains liable to serve when the offender enters the corrective service facility under section 135 (7) (b) ; and
the day the offender would otherwise have been released under section 227 , for the period of detention, is the day the offender is to be released on parole under the Corrective Services Act 2006 .
However, the release of the offender under subsection (2) (c) (ii) is subject to the Corrective Services Act 2006 as if granted under a court ordered parole order (the statutory parole order ) and the provisions of that Act applying to parole orders also apply to the statutory parole order.
