Why has the Parole Board stopped publishing decisions?

The Parole Board has not published a single decision since May 2025. They used to publish once or twice a week, yet for over a year they have not published once.

This is appalling. We are meant to have an open justice system. The Minister should send them a rocket, and not reappoint anyone who was party to the decision to stop publishing their decisions.

Also of interest is they have made their decisions less useful over time. They used to explicitly include the Roc*Rol assessment which is the risk of conviction and imprisonment. By hiding this data, it frustrates independent analysis of their decisions. But now they have gone even further and decided the public should not have access to any of their decisions at all.
