The Parole Commissioners’ (Amendment) Rules (Northern Ireland) 2021
These Rules amend the Parole Commissioners’ Rules (Northern Ireland) 2009 (the 2009 Rules) to add a new rule 22A. It enables registered victims or other persons to make a request for a summary of the reasons for a final direction of a single Commissioner under rule 13(2)(b) of the 2009 Rules or of a decision of a panel made in oral proceedings under rule 24(2) of the 2009 Rules to be produced and disclosed, unless the single Commissioner or the chairman of the panel, as the case may be, considers there are exceptional circumstances why a summary should not be produced.
