- Court of Appeal
The Court held there was no error in the District Court's findings: two expert psychologists provided evidence that, taken with the appellant's repeated sexual offending, reoffending after reduction in supervision and treatment, and minimisation of harm to victims, supported findings of limited self-regulatory capacity and an absence of genuine understanding or concern for victims under s107IAA(1)(c) and (d); accordingly the ESO for three years was lawfully imposed and the appeal was dismissed.
