Proposed text

—(1) Every prisoner, whether or not he is admitted to the third stage, shall be eligible for release on licence when he has served five-sixths of his sentence of preventive detention. (2) A prisoner admitted to the third stage shall be eligible for release on licence, subject to this regulation, when he has served two-thirds of his sentence of preventive detention.(3) The Commissioner shall at each quarter consider the case of every prisoner who has served 3 months or more in the third stage, with a view to recommending his release within 3 months thereafter, if the Commissioner is satisfied, having regard to his conduct in the third stage, and his prospects on release, that there is a reasonable probability that he will not revert to a criminal life.(4) Where a prisoner has under regulation 22(3) been returned to the second stage, and subsequently placed in the third stage by the Commissioner, he shall be considered for the purposes of release on licence as if he had entered the third stage for the first time.(5) The Superintendent shall at once report to the Commissioner any circumstances arising in the case of a prisoner in whose favour a recommendation has been made which may affect any decision on that recommendation and if necessary remove the prisoner to the second stage pending the decision of the Commissioner.
