Legal Action Group Parole Board Hearings: Law and Practice

Parole Board Hearings: law and practice continues to be the only book dedicated to covering the decision-making powers and procedures of the Parole Board. It provides practical and detailed guidance on parole processes, including recall, for those serving both determinate and indeterminate sentences. Since publication of the 3rd edition in 2013, the pace of change in this area has been considerable and there have been significant developments in the parole review process. It is vital that practitioners have a handbook that brings them up to date on the current state of parole law and the powers and duties of the Parole Board. The appendices contain the Parole Board Rules, relevant statutory extracts, directions and guidance and a list of useful contacts. Parole Board Hearings: law and practice is essential reading for lawyers, advisers, prisoners and their families, and all those working within prisons and for the prison and probation services and related bodies.
