Dear Parole Board for England and Wales,
Amendment to the Parole Board Rules 2016
3. For rule 25 (disclosure of information) of the Parole Board Rules 2016(1) substitute—

25.—(1) Where the Secretary of State notifies the Board that a victim wishes to receive a summary of the reasons for a decision recorded under rules 14(7) or 24—
(a)the Board must produce a summary of the reasons for that decision, and
(b)the Secretary of State must disclose the summary to that victim,
unless the Board chair considers that there are exceptional circumstances why a summary should not be produced for disclosure.
(2) Where any other person seeks disclosure of a summary of the reasons for a decision recorded under rules 14(7) or 24, the Board must produce and disclose a summary to that person if the Board chair considers that the public interest in the principle of open justice justifies disclosure
