Part 3Court bail
Granting of bail on adjournment: Testing and monitoring of defendants on bail with drug or alcohol conditions
30VWhere prescribed testing procedure may be carried out
An authorised person may require a defendant to undergo testing at the place where the defendant is given notice under section 30T(1) personally by the authorised person.
Subsection (1) applies even if the place where the defendant is given notice personally by the authorised person is—
- a public place (as defined in section 2(1) of the Summary Offences Act 1981); or
- a place that is wholly or partly outside a dwelling house, or any other building, at the defendant’s residential address.
However, a defendant cannot be required to undergo a prescribed testing procedure in a place specified in subsection (2)(a) or (b) if the testing procedure involves the collection of blood or urine.
A defendant given notice personally (in writing or orally) by the authorised person may be required by the authorised person, if subsection (3) applies or if it is not reasonably practicable to require the defendant to undergo testing at the place where the defendant is given notice, to accompany the authorised person to any other place where it is likely that it will be reasonably practicable for the defendant to undergo testing.
A defendant given a notice under section 30U(1)(c) or (2) that requires the defendant to undergo testing is required to report to the testing facility whose name and location are specified in the notice, at the time or times specified, to undergo testing.
