SUMMARY |
|
|
|
This enactment amends certain provisions of the Criminal Code that
relate to life imprisonment. The enactment provides that such a sentence
means imprisonment without any access to parole for the remainder of
the natural life of the offender.
|
|
|
|
The enactment also repeals sections 745.6 to 745.64, which allow an
offender to apply, after 15 years, for a reduction in the period to be
served before parole eligibility. This ensures that the full parole
eligibility period ordered by the court is served.
