The Corrections Management (AMC Detainee Classification) Policy 2012 sets out the definitions for each security classification.

E classification

E classification refers to a detainee with a history of escaping from lawful custody and will have an additional classification of E denoting ‘escapee’. There are three grades of E – E1, E2, and E3 and denotes the level of risk. The lower the number the high the risk.

E1 denotes either an assessed significant level of risk of escape or a need for further assessment to take place before considering reducing the classification. A detainee classified E1 may not progress below Medium security rating. E2 denotes a reduced level of risk and will allow a Minimum 1 security rating. E3 denotes a low level of risk commensurate with being suitable for Minimum Security 2 or 3.

Minimum security

There are three levels of minimum security classification denoting different levels of risk. Minimum 1 indicates a lower level risk than medium security. Minimum 2 denotes a lower level of risk than assessed for Minimum 1. Minimum 3 is the lowest level of security classification and is the classification that must be achieved in order to be considered for external leave.

(3) The physical nature and layout of the AMC affects the management of detainee cohorts in terms of movement around the AMC and accommodation placement options.

The need to separate particular detainees and/or groups of detainees in common areas impacts the movement of detainees around the centre but does not affect the daily management of detainees.

ACT Corrective Services classifies detainees according to the nature and severity of the charges, severity of sentence, offending history, escape history, breaches of court orders, institutional disciplinary record and stability, internal or external intelligence and motivation to address offending behaviour.
