Justice committee  Unfortunately, honourable member, I think it would be beyond the purview of my role to provide legal advice to this committee. I'm afraid I won't be able to answer your question.

Justice committee  It's not an issue for us to interpret at the board.

Justice committee  They remain under the supervision of the Correctional Service, yes.

Justice committee  Yes.

Justice committee  Absolutely. Parole doesn't mean that the person isn't serving their sentence any more.

Justice committee  Absolutely not. They are under the supervision of the Correctional Service.

Justice committee  Right. Essentially what happens is if that information from the judicial review process is available to the board members, they will consider that information along with the rest of the file information as well.

Justice committee  Not necessarily. In some cases, this information will be shared and in others it will not.

Justice committee  It's the information we're provided from the Correctional Service that the board members will see.

Justice committee  We can.

Justice committee  We don't always, that's right. Just to clarify it, when that information is available to board members, they will obviously take it into consideration along with the rest of the information they have on file from various sources.

Justice committee  No. They can reapply for another form of release at a later date. Typically, they would have to wait two years, but there can be variances.

Justice committee  Yes, that's right.

Justice committee  Unfortunately, I'm not sure of the technical answer to that question.

Justice committee  What I would do is undertake to give you a proper answer, because I wouldn't want to mislead you on that very technical point.
