A registered victim is entitled to the following information:

• sentence details
• security classifications
• details of any transfer of the offender from one prison to another
• date and circumstances under which the offender will be released (for example, on bail, leave of absence, home detention or parole)
• escape from custody and return to custody

Offender is Serving a Community Service Order or Bond

If you are the victim of crime and the offender is serving a Community Service Order or Bond, you are eligible to apply for information about the order or bond.

You should be told, on request, if the offender was ordered to undertake community service - whether the offender completed the community service; and, if the offender was subject to a bond - whether the conditions of the bond were complied with.
