Illustration for Public Safety (Public Protection Orders) Act 2014

If you are reviewing a public protection order about someone who lives in a residence, the court checks the order. If the court does not make a certain finding under section 18(4), it must look at the management plan for that person. The court checks if the plan is still suitable for them.

The court can also give suggestions to the person in charge of the residence where the person lives. You can think of the manager as the person who oversees the residence and makes sure everything runs smoothly. The court's suggestions are to help the manager support the person who lives there.
