Community Work
Community Work requires offenders to do unpaid work in the community for non-profit organisations.
Home Detention Sentences
Home Detention is a sentence that requires an offender to remain at an approved residence at all times under electronic monitoring and close supervision by a probation officer.
Home Detention Orders
A Home Detention Order lets an offender serve part of their prison sentence at an approved address, under electronic monitoring and supervision by a probation officer. Orders may be granted by the New Zealand Parole Board to eligible offenders. They are different to the Home Detention Sentence, which can be imposed by judges in court.
Supervision
Supervision is a rehabilitative community-based sentence requiring offenders to address the causes of their criminal behaviour under the supervision of a probation officer.
Community Detention
Community Detention requires the offender to comply with an electronically-monitored curfew imposed by the court. Offenders can be sentenced to Community Detention for up to six months.
Intensive Supervision
Intensive supervision requires offenders to address the causes of their offending with intensive oversight from a probation officer. It is targeted at offenders convicted of serious offences, with severe and/or complex rehabilitative needs and a high risk of re-offending.
Extended Supervision
An Extended Supervision Order imposes parole-like conditions on higher-risk child-sex offenders for up to 10 years after their release from prison.
