(This note is not part of the Rules)
These Rules make amendments to the Parole Board Rules 2019 (S.I. 2019/1038) to take account of a court judgment. They amend provisions in respect of the requirement for report writers to give a recommendation as to release in rules 24(1) and paragraphs 4 and 5 of Part B of the Schedule by replacing the current paragraphs in full. The Rules also, in new Part A1, make provision as to report writers professional opinions that can be included in a dossier and provides for an overarching Secretary of State view.
A full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sectors is foreseen.
