- High Court
The Court set aside the 17 September 2015 decision because the Board acted unreasonably by effectively requiring completion of a DTU before supporting parole without taking into account relevant considerations, specifically the Probation Service's assessment that DTU was unnecessary and the evidence that the applicant had no history of drug use; the error rendered the decision unreasonable and required reconsideration.
