Good time reductions (6 months per year served) will now apply to both minimum terms for parole eligibility and maximum terms for mandatory discharge, clarifying that reductions affect when offenders can first be considered for parole

Department of Correctional Services must recalculate parole eligibility dates for all offenders incarcerated on or after July 1, 2011, with recalculations due by April 15, 2027

Recalculations must be coordinated with the Board of Parole using a phased implementation schedule; no person may be denied parole eligibility solely due to administrative delay

Individuals currently on parole who were discharged after July 1, 2011, and whose eligibility would have been affected may request the Board of Parole to reduce their parole term

Declared an emergency measure, taking effect immediately upon passage and approval
