The Board was not required to demarcate or indicate a punitive tariff or a fixed 'triggering period' when declining to recommend substitution of a determinate sentence; as an executive review body it must assess each review afresh under s.8(c) of the Ordinance and the refusal to indicate a triggering period did not breach Article 80 of the Basic Law, Article 10 of the Bill of Rights Ordinance, or natural justice in the circumstances of this case.
