(1) The Commissioner shall make a supervision order, that is to say, an order which requires a person to be under the supervision of a correctional services officer and to comply with conditions imposed in the order, for a fixed term of 1 year against a person who is released from a rehabilitation centre after having served a sentence of detention under a detention order.
(2) A supervision order shall specify-

        (a) particulars of a correctional services officer whom the Commissioner designates to supervise the person;
        (b) the date of release of the person from the rehabilitation centre concerned and the date on which the supervision order shall expire; and
        (c) such conditions as the Commissioner thinks fit.
(3) The Commissioner may at any time vary or cancel a supervision order.
(4) A person who fails to comply with a condition of a supervision order which has been made against him commits an offence and is liable to a fine at level 2 and to imprisonment for 12 months.
(5) A person against whom a recall order has been made shall not be liable to be prosecuted or convicted under subsection (4).
