The Parole Board has the power to grant your early release, or temporary release from prison if you’re pregnant. With the help of your case manager and unit manager, you’ll draft an application for early release. This goes to the general manager of the prison, who then makes a submission to the Parole Board recommending for or against early release. The Parole Board will consider the early release of every prisoner who is pregnant, whether or not early release has been recommended.
