The parole committee is looking to recruit four new members.

The committee is responsible for making recommendations to the Home Affairs Minister regarding the release and recall of prisoners. It's hoping to attract a fresh intake of community spirited individuals who are interested in contributing to what is described as a challenging, but rewarding, aspect of Island life.

No formal qualifications are required but prospective new members should have good ‘life experience’, a keen interest in the role and the time and energy to devote to monthly meetings. The committee says an open mind, tact, diplomacy, and professionalism are
essential attributes, as are a strong sense of justice, confidentiality and discretion.
