STATEMENT OF YOUR RIGHT TO APPLY FOR DISCHARGE
FROM CUSTODY
You have been arrested for contempt of the Independent Broad-based Anti-
corruption Commission.
Because it is not practicable to bring you before the Supreme Court without
delay, you are entitled to apply to a bail justice for discharge from custody on
bail.
If you want to apply for discharge from custody, you must advise the person
in charge of the place where you are being detained.
If you do apply for discharge from custody, the person in charge of the place
where you are being detained must ensure you are brought before a bail
justice as soon as practicable.
The bail justice may order that you be discharged from custody in accordance
with the Bail Act 1977. The person in charge of the place where you are
being detained must abide by that order.

ENDNOTES
Penalty Units
These Regulations provide for penalties by reference to penalty units within
the meaning of section 110 of the Sentencing Act 1991. The amount of the
penalty is to be calculated, in accordance with section 7 of the Monetary
Units Act 2004, by multiplying the number of penalty units applicable by the
value of a penalty unit.
In accordance with section 11 of the Monetary Units Act 2004, the value of
a penalty unit for the financial year commencing 1 July 2012 is $140.84.
The amount of the calculated penalty may be rounded to the nearest dollar.
The value of a penalty unit for future financial years is to be fixed by the
Treasurer under section 5 of the Monetary Units Act 2004. The value of a
penalty unit for a financial year must be published in the Government Gazette
and a Victorian newspaper before 1 June in the preceding financial year.
