Lord Keen of Elie
I am not able to answer that question but the point the noble Lord makes is entirely accurate because, generally speaking, the issues for the Parole Board to consider are, first, whether it should release into an open prison environment and, thereafter, whether there should be release on licence.
Lord Judge (CB)
My Lords, what is the proposal to improve the arrangements by which the victims in this case are provided legal aid?
Lord Keen of Elie
There are no immediate proposals in that regard. As the noble and learned Lord is aware, the LASPO provisions are currently under review.
