Annotation
West Virginia's Board of Probation and Parole conducted 94 fewer parole interviews and granted 73 fewer paroles in 1981-82 than in the previous year. This may reflect the Board's conservative to moderate approach.
Abstract
The report outlines the Board's scope of operations and its rules and regulations. Statistical tables tabulate the number of interviews held and decisions granted during the year, as well as the types of crimes for which paroles were granted. The report notes that the Board has devoted much time to revising current rules and regulations.
