An accomplice in the infamous Snowtown murders has had some changes to his supervision order.

Mark Ray Haydon was released on parole last year, after serving a 25-year sentence for his role in covering up the murders.

In a ruling on 28 May, the Supreme Court placed Haydon on an 18-month extended supervision order.

Haydon reportedly listened via visual link-up as Justice Laura Stein outlined prohibitions on drug use, prescriptions, firearms and weaponry.

However, the new ruling does not include several earlier conditions, including wearing an electronic monitoring bracelet, a curfew and a ban on drinking alcohol.

Haydon can also enter licenced premises and does not have to report weekly to corrections.

The ruling comes after a year of closed-door negotiations.
