Mr. Hooson

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many cases, not recommended by the examining magistrates, have been forwarded to the Parole Board by his Department, H.2; and in how many such cases has parole been granted.

Mr. Elystan Morgan

Of the 710 cases in England and Wales considered by the Parole Board up to the end of May, 78 had not been recommended by local review committees. Release on licence was recommended by the Board in 31 of these. The recommendation was accepted in each case.
