Again, we support both clause 100 and clause 101. This involves the creation of an appeal division for the parole board. There's an earlier provision about access to parole, and if parole is denied you have to wait a certain period of time to reapply. We agree with that. We also think that if someone has a decision that they feel was made in error they would have the right of appeal. Clauses 100 and 101 allow for an appeal division within the parole board, so if the initial decision is unfavourable to either side there is a right of appeal by the minister or by the individual--I believe the appeal is to both--to allow for reconsideration of a parole decision.
