NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION

Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:

Section 77-27-5 establishes Board authority and jurisdiction, Section 77-27-9 establishes that the Board can hold parole and pardon proceedings and outlines the parameters for doing so, and Section 77-27-11 establishes that the Board can revoke parole and that the parolee can present witnesses and documentary evidence.

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

No comments have been received since the last five-year review.

Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:

This rule establishes procedures for holding evidentiary hearings when a parolee has entered a not guilty plea to an allegation that parole has been violated and the board wishes to consider the allegation. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
