2005 Vermont Code - § 502b. — Terms and conditions of parole

§ 502b. Terms and conditions of parole

(a) When an inmate is paroled, the parole board shall establish terms and conditions of parole that it deems reasonably necessary to ensure that the inmate will lead a law-abiding life and that will assist the inmate to do so. Such terms and conditions shall be set forth in the parolee's parole agreement.

(b) The parole board may require a parolee as a condition of parole to participate, as a resident or nonresident, in programs at a treatment center for all or part of the period of parole, provided that the commissioner certifies that adequate treatment facilities, personnel, and programs are available. If the commissioner determines that the person's residence in the center or participation in its programs, or both, should be terminated, because the person can derive no further significant benefits from such residence or participation, or both, or because his or her residence or participation adversely affects the rehabilitation of other residents or participants, he or she shall so notify the board of parole, which shall thereupon make such other provision with respect to the person as it deems appropriate.

(c) A person residing in and participating in programs at a treatment center shall abide by the rules and regulations of the center and may be required to pay such costs incident to residents as the commissioner deems appropriate. (Added 1997, No. 148 (Adj. Sess.), § 61, eff. April 29, 1998.)
