Victorian Current Acts Victorian Current Acts(1) Subject to subsections (2) and (3), the Youth Parole Board must consider whether to cancel a child's or young person's parole under section 636(1) if, while the child or young person is on parole, the Secretary provides the Board with terrorism risk information under section 626 in respect of the child or young person that is new to the Board.
(2) The Youth Parole Board must cancel the child's or young person's parole if satisfied that—

(b) in the case of a child or young person who had a terrorism record when released on parole, the risk that the person will commit a terrorism or foreign incursion offence has increased since the person was released on parole; or
(c) in any other case, there is a risk that the child or young person will commit a terrorism or foreign incursion offence.
(3) Despite subsection (2), the Youth Parole Board is not required to cancel the child's or young person's parole if satisfied that—
