Section 92

The manager of any approved school or approved home shall review all cases of children or young persons when they have been detained for 12 months, and may, after such review, recommend to the Director that any child or young person shall be released on conditional parole licence.

The Director, on the advice of the Parole Board mentioned in subsection (3) and notwithstanding any order made by any court, shall have power to order the release on parole licence of any child or young person who has been detained in an approved school or an approved home for 12 months, at any time before the completion of his full period of detention and on such conditions as may be stated by him in the order.

The Minister shall appoint a Parole Board not exceeding 12 persons in number, which shall advise and make recommendations to the Director on such cases as may be referred to it by him. Members of the Parole Board shall hold office for such period as may be stated in their notice of appointment, which shall be published in the Gazette.

Any child or young person released from an approved school or an approved home on conditional parole licence by order of the Director, who breaks the conditions of his parole licence, shall be brought before the Director, who shall have power to order the return of the child or young person to the approved school or approved home from which he was released, to be detained there for the unexpired portion of his original period of detention, except where the child or young person concerned, by reason of any act or omission committed while on licence, renders himself liable to prosecution for any offence, in which case he shall be brought before a Juvenile Court.
