RoC*Rol Scores and Parole Decisions

Joshua Grainger made this Official Information request to New Zealand Parole Board

New Zealand Parole Board did not have the information requested.

From: Joshua Grainger

Dear New Zealand Parole Board,

According to the CPS Operations Manual The Department of Corrections uses a tool called RoC*Rol to generate a score estimating the chance that an offender will seriously reoffend, which is then provided to the Parole Board to assess whether parole should be granted. I would like to request under the Official Information Act:

* any reports, memos, studies, briefings or other documents or data that analyse the relationship between RoC*Rol scores and Parole Board decisions

Feel free to contact me if you wish me to clarify my request.

Yours faithfully,

Joshua Grainger

Dear New Zealand Parole Board,

estimating the chance that an offender will seriously reoffend,
which is then provided to the Parole Board to assess whether parole
should be granted. I would like to request under the Official
Information Act:

that analyse the relationship between RoC*Rol scores and Parole
Board decisions

Feel free to contact me if you wish me to clarify my request.
