AI Summary

This bill proposes to allow the Chair of the Parole Board or their designee to grant additional deductions from the maximum term of a parolee's sentence for satisfactory conduct while on parole. The bill specifies that these deductions can be up to 10 days per month, with an additional 10-day deduction for successful completion of 6 months of satisfactory parole compliance. These deductions would be added to any other deductions the parolee is entitled to under existing laws.
