Section 672.56 — Criminal Code: Delegated authority to vary restrictions on liberty of accused

A Review Board that makes a disposition in respect of an accused under paragraph 672.54(b) or (c) may delegate to the person in charge of the hospital authority to direct that the restrictions on the liberty of the accused be increased or decreased within any limits and subject to any conditions set out in that disposition, and any direction so made is deemed for the purposes of this Act to be a disposition made by the Review Board. If the accused is a high-risk accused, any direction is subject to the restrictions set out in subsection 672.64(3). A person who increases the restrictions on the liberty of the accused significantly pursuant to authority delegated to the person by a Review Board shall make a record of the increased restrictions on the file of the accused; and give notice of the increase as soon as is practicable to the accused and, if the increased restrictions remain in force for a period exceeding seven days, to the Review Board.
