Notes:
1. A member in civil custody may be permitted to take recreation leave during the period of custody.
2. If a member had applied for, or was on, recreation leave before a period of imprisonment, detention or custody, the period of recreation leave that the member has not taken is cancelled.

Note: A member who is imprisoned or in detention or custody will remain so while receiving medical attention, regardless of the location of the medical attention.

Example: A member in detention is hospitalised due to a medical condition. The member remains under detention conditions while in hospital.

Example: The member has taken 10 weeks of her 52 week maternity leave entitlement before being detained for a period of 4 weeks. Upon release the member is eligible to take the remaining 38 weeks maternity leave.

Note: If a member would have been eligible to paid maternity leave under Chapter 5 Part 6 during a period of detention or military custody, the member is eligible to receive the salary payable under section 1.7.5 for the period.
