The Board's decision was quashed because it applied or at least gave an impression of applying an impermissible 'special reason' threshold inconsistent with LTPSRO s.8, breached procedural fairness by failing to disclose materials that it had considered and by failing to give adequate reasons for a decision affecting liberty, and thereby failed to take into account relevant statutory factors; the decision must be remitted for reconsideration.
