In South Australia, the indeterminate sentence(s) commence upon the expiration <strong>of</strong> any<br />
determinate sentence imposed, <strong>and</strong> are reviewed every three years after that. Release<br />
is only by way <strong>of</strong> an order from the Supreme Court.<br />
In the Northern Territory, a prisoner serving indefinite sentence(s) has a nominal<br />
sentence set at half the sentence that would have been imposed if not they were not<br />
dangerous, or 20 years (25 years in some circumstances) if the sentence imposed<br />
would have been one or more consecutive sentences <strong>of</strong> life imprisonment. <strong>The</strong><br />
indeterminate sentence(s) must be reviewed by the court when the nominal sentence<br />
(the minimum term the <strong>of</strong>fender would have been required to serve if they<br />
were not dangerous) has expired, <strong>and</strong> every three years after.<br />
