New sex offender laws passed

29.05.2008

SEX offenders who have committed crimes against adults will remain under close supervision after their jail term ends under a new Victorian law passed through state parliament.

Victorian Corrections Minister Bob Cameron said the extended supervision scheme previously only applied to sex offenders with child victims, but now those with adult victims have been included.

"These new laws will ensure high risk sex offenders with adult victims can be supervised post-sentence with limitations on where they live and requirements such as constant electronic monitoring," Mr Cameron said after the legislation`s passage last night.

Conditions of the law include that the offender reports to and receives visits from authorities, does not move house or travel interstate without permission and undergoes directed rehabilitation.
