Annual Report 2017 – 2018
As in previous years the report shows the considerable volumes of work dealt with by the relatively small number of individuals who comprise the Board and its administrative support body, Parole Scotland. The work which the Board undertake needs to be of the highest standard and involves difficult and complex decisions which have a direct bearing on the safety of communities across Scotland and it can, and does, have an important role to play in assisting with the rehabilitation of offenders to return to their communities as law‑abiding citizens.
