Mr. Chair, all of these measures are technical in nature, although they all go to sentence calculation provisions and dealing with sentences that run consecutive to the sentence being served at the time of the imposition of a new sentence.
As it pertains to the noted sections, it's attempting to cover off where a multiple sentence is imposed. The act needs to be able to calculate the parole eligibility provisions. Oftentimes when an offender receives a new sentence that runs consecutive to the old sentence, the parole eligibility date becomes a mathematical science for the sentence calculators. These provisions are attempting to marry that up and ensure that sentence calculation provisions are clearly laid out in the act, so that when multiple sentences are imposed those provisions are clear for the sentence calculators.
