Written Question
Parole: Reviews
Tuesday 16th January 2024

Asked by: Fleur Anderson (Labour - Putney)

Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what recent discussions he has had with the Parole Board on the process for reviewing sentences of imprisonment for public protection.

Answered by Edward Argar - Minister of State (Ministry of Justice)

I regularly meet with the Chair and CEO of the Parole Board and have discussed changes proposed in the Victims and Prisoners Bill.

The Parole Board is also represented on the IPP External Stakeholder Challenge Group, which meets quarterly and is chaired by an Executive Director within HMPPS. The Group was established to enable representatives of independent bodies and organisations to feed into the IPP Progression Board and hold HMPPS to account for its delivery of the IPP Action Plan.
