I move amendment No. 35:
In page 13, between lines 4 and 5, to insert the following:“(7) A psychologist, psychiatrist or other medical practitioner who prepares a report under subparagraphs (vii)or (viii)* of subsection (5)(a)of this section shall be entitled to seek and receive, for the purpose of preparing such a report, any medical notes on the parole candidate from any of the parole candidate’s medical practitioners unless the parole candidate refuses permission for such notes to be disclosed.".
