In 2007, following the recommendation of the Parole Board, the person in question, having served 15 years in custody, was approved for ongoing temporary release and is now serving his sentence in the community subject to certain conditions and under the supervision of the Probation Service.

As the person is not held in custody, his case no longer falls within the remit of the Parole Board.
