question text

To ask Her Majesty's Government what investigations they have carried out into the reasons for the delays that have affected the parole application and prison category of Peter Chester, currently held at HMP Full Sutton; what steps, if any, they are taking to prevent delays for life sentence prisoners who remain detained after the end of their judicial tariffs; and whether they take into account, when making parole decisions, whether hearsay evidence has prejudiced a case.

Peter Chester is currently placed in closed conditions pending a further review of his detention and his suitability for open conditions by the independent Parole Board which has commenced in line with current legislation. The Parole Board has confirmed that there is no longer a backlog when it comes to listing oral hearings for life and IPP sentence prisoners. The law provides that life sentenced prisoners are entitled to have their detention reviewed by the independent Parole Board every two years. The evidence that is considered and the weight that is given to that evidence are matters solely for the independent Parole Board.
