Hi there. Parole is the release of an offender from custody to serve the balance of their sentence in the community. Each person released on parole is subject to a ‘parole order’ that has been issued by a court or the NSW State Parole Authority. The parole order sets out the conditions of a person’s parole that must be complied with. Failure to comply with any of the conditions may result in the issue of a warning or the revocation (cancellation) of the parole and return to custody.


Parole orders usually contain conditions about where the person will live during the parole period. If you are subject to a parole order and want to change your residential address, you will need to notify the Probation and Parole Officer and/or Compliance and Monitoring Officer that you typically report to. If you are unsure of who your supervising officer is, you should contact the NSW State Parole Authority as soon as possible on (02) 8688 3635.


Suggested way forward

Complying with the conditions of your parole order is critical to ensuring you do not breach your parole. Changes to your personal circumstances, such as a change of address, ordinarily need to be notified to your supervising officer. If you need advice on your legal rights and responsibilities under a parole order, you should consider speaking to a criminal lawyer.
