24960 (2026). Rawiri Waititi to the Minister of Corrections: What processes, if any, does the Department of Corrections follow in assessing prior recall decisions when deciding whether to apply for an extended supervision order?

Hon Mark Mitchell: Extended Supervision Order applications are initiated by Corrections through the courts and must be supported by risk assessments, psychological health assessments and evidence that the statutory criteria is met. Corrections considers a person’s full history of compliance with parole conditions when deciding whether to apply for an extended supervision order. This can include reviewing any previous recall decisions, the reasons for those recalls, and whether the person complied with conditions after being re-released.
