DAR File No.: 41176

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:

Sections 77-27-5, 77-27-6, 77-27-9, 77-27-10, and 77-27-11 give the Board the authority, proceedings guidelines, conditions and/or revocation of parole. Rule R671-402 states the Board may add special conditions to a standard parole agreement which are intended to help hold an offender accountable or to help rehabilitate the offender.

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 written comments were received related to this rule.

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

The best practice for setting parole conditions is to tailor the conditions to the individual's risk and need. For example, a person who commits sex offenses against children would have a special parole condition restricting the individual from being in positions of trust over children. The Board supports the continuation of this rule because it allows the Board the ability to add special conditions to a standard parole agreement according to the needs of the individual.
