Hello, I am looking for some help about the interpretation of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act (QLD), specifically the disclosure period.
In May 2009, I was sentenced to an aggregate sentence of 3 years and 2 months, which was suspended after 12 months and backdated to the start of the custody period 12 months prior. The remaining period was a good behaviour bond.
Two questions, am I eligible for the conviction to be spent after the 'rehabilitation period' of 10 years? If so, when does the rehabilitation period start under Criminal Law - from the date of sentencing or the backdated date?
