Corrections In Canada Practice Exam

Who is primarily responsible for issuing Conditional Release decisions?

Parole Board Warden Commissioner A & B

Correct Answer:

Parole Board

Explanation:

Conditional release decisions are made by the Parole Board of Canada. This independent tribunal has the authority to determine when an inmate can be released into the community and under what conditions, after assessing risk, treatment progress, time served, and public safety. Wardens oversee the day-to-day operations of institutions and supervise inmates, but they do not decide on conditional release. The Commissioner leads the correctional service administratively, yet release outcomes come from the Parole Board.
