Statute overview

About this statute

This Order sets out how community service penalties are carried out for people sentenced by a court. RCS must list people sentenced to community service and send the list to their District, and the District must notify the person of the reporting date. The district authority must prepare and send RCS a list of works for community service penalties, and it may revise the list when needed. Public bodies, civil society, and private-sector members that want to employ people sentenced to community service must apply in writing to RCS; if authorised, they must sign a contract with the RCS Commissioner General or a delegate. RCS may, together with the concerned District, decide where camps will be located for people sentenced to community service, if it considers that approach appropriate.
