          <inserted>All prisoners and parolees who are eligible for an extended supervision order are considered for such an order in the last 12 months of their prison sentence or period on parole. For further clarity, prisoners who are required to apply for parole can apply six months prior to their conditional release date and the Parole Board then determines approval for release on parole at or after their conditional release date.</inserted>

          <inserted>For those prisoners who are eligible for automatic parole release, they are released at their conditional release date. In both instances these offenders are reviewed for suitability for an Extended Supervision Order in the last 12 months of their period on parole. The decision whether to pursue an extended supervision order rests with the Attorney-General.</inserted>
