Corrective Services (Parole Board) Amendment Bill 2025

This bill closes a gap in parole oversight by requiring the full Parole Board Queensland to review all urgent decisions made by individual board members about suspending a prisoner's parole. Previously, only decisions to suspend parole were reviewed by the full Board — decisions not to suspend could go unchecked. The bill also retrospectively validates past Board decisions made this way since 2017.
