- High Court
On the evidence, the Court was satisfied the applicant no longer displays an intense drive, desire or urge to commit a relevant sexual offence and does not have a predilection or proclivity for serious sexual offending under s107IAA(1)(a)–(b); therefore he is not presently at high risk and the statutory requirement for cancellation under s107M(4) is met; however because cancellation is discretionary and removal of the ESO without arrangements would increase risk, the Court ordered discharge to take effect on 13 October 2023 to permit accommodation and transitional supports to be arranged.
