I move amendment No. 38:

In page 13, between lines 26 and 27, to insert the following:"(10) Any medical practitioner or psychologist who gives evidence to a parole panel shall be entitled —
(a) to give evidence on the medical or psychological condition of the parole candidate,

(b) to give evidence on the medical treatment of the parole candidate,

(c) to produce treatment notes concerning the parole candidate,

unless the candidate refuses permission for such evidence to be given or notes to be disclosed.".
