A New Parole System for England and Wales
This report makes recommendations for a new parole system for England and Wales, proposing that an independent Parole Tribunal be established as part of the Tribunals Service to replace the existing Parole Board. As a judicial body making decisions regarding liberty, the tribunal would be independent of the executive and would have the powers and resources necessary to enable it to make expert and informed decisions regarding which prisoners should be released.
Killing Time
Little is known about life imprisonment and the process of releasing offenders back into the community in Ireland. Addressing this scarcity of information, Griffin’s empirical study examines the legal and policy framework surrounding life imprisonment and parole. Through an analysis of the rationales expressed by parole decision-makers in the exercise of their discretionary power of release, it is revealed that decision-makers view public protection as central to the process. However, the risk of reoffending features amidst an array of other factors that also influence parole outcomes including personal interpretations of the purposes of punishment, public opinion and the political landscape within which parole operates. The findings of this study are employed to provide a rationale for the upward trend in time served by life sentence prisoners prior to release in recent times.
