Regulation 15

It shall be the duty of the Director-General to discharge or place on parole licence each girl detained in a place of safety as soon as she has made sufficient progress in her training.

With this object in view, the Director-General shall at the end of the first 6 months during which the girl is detained in a place of safety or at such earlier time as he considers necessary, review the progress made by the girl, and all the circumstances of the case including the girl’s home surroundings.

The Director-General shall review the progress and circumstances as often as may be necessary and at least every 6 months.

The Director-General shall, for this purpose, require the superintendent of the place of safety concerned and an aftercare officer to submit in writing a report relating to the progress, behaviour and other relevant matters pertaining to such girl for the period under review.
