Prisoners: Disability
- Question
-
To ask Her Majesty's Government what records are kept by the Parole Board in respect of prisoners’ disabilities when they are attending open hearings.
- Answer
-
At present, all Parole Board hearings are held in private (as set out in Parole Board Rule 15[3]) with no open hearings.
Parole Board members determine whether there are any additional requirements that are necessary to ensure that a prisoner is able to participate in their review, including any disabilities they may have. The Parole Board does not keep separate records of this.
