Prospects for Parole
† by RICHARD SPARKS , Lecturer In
Criminal Law and Criminology, Birmingham University
The recent White Paper on The Adult Offender suggests that prisoners might, at the discretion of the Home Secretary, be released on parole after serving one-third of their sentence. Mr. Sparks discusses this idea in the light of American experience and concludes that it may well create more problems than it solves.
