119: Annual report

You could also call this:

"The Board must give a yearly report to the Attorney-General about its work and progress."

Illustration for Parole Act 2002

The Board has to give the Attorney-General a report every year. You will get to see what the Board did and how well it worked during the year. The Board must give this report within 2 months of the end of each financial year.

The report must have some specific information in it. This includes details about referrals made by the chairperson for early parole or compassionate release. It also includes information about classes of people that the Minister of Justice has designated under section 25(3) for early parole consideration.

The Board's report is like a summary of its work for the year, and it helps the Attorney-General understand what the Board has been doing.
