Corrective Services Act 2006

This section applies if—

a no body-no parole prisoner’s application for a parole order is deferred under section 193A; or

the parole board is given a notice under section 175S(4) or 175T(3); or

at anytime after a no body-no parole prisoner begins to serve the prisoner’s period of imprisonment, the parole board decides to consider if the prisoner has given satisfactory cooperation.

Subject to subsection (3), the parole board must, by written notice, ask the commissioner for a commissioner’s report about the prisoner.

If an appeal has been made to a court against the conviction or sentence to which the period of imprisonment relates, the parole board must not ask for a commissioner’s report until the appeal is decided.

The written notice must state the day the parole board proposes to consider if the prisoner has given satisfactory cooperation (the proposed hearing day).

The commissioner must comply with the request by giving the parole board the commissioner’s report at least 28 days before the proposed hearing day.

The parole board must give the chief executive a copy of the notice given to the commissioner.
