(1)[F2Subject to subsection (1A) below,] this section applies to a prisoner serving an extended sentence within the meaning of section 210A of the 1995 Act (extended sentences) [F3and in respect of whom a licence has been revoked under section 17(1) to (1B)] of this Act.

(2)Subject to subsection (3) below, a prisoner to whom this section applies may require the Secretary of State to refer his case to the Parole Board—
(a)where his case has previously been referred to the Parole Board under this section or section 17(3) of this Act, not less than one year following the [F5Board’s disposal of his case];
(b)in any other case, at any time.
[F6(2A)Where—
(a)a prisoner’s case has been referred to the Parole Board under this section or section 17(3) of this Act; and
(b)the prisoner receives another sentence of imprisonment before the Board has considered his case,
the Board shall not consider his case unless there is a further referral of his case to the Board under this section.
(2B)A case which, by virtue of subsection (2A) above, is not considered by the Parole Board shall not, for the purposes of subsection (2)(a) above, be treated as having been disposed of.]
(3)Where a prisoner to whom this section applies is subject to another sentence which is not treated as a single [F7term] with the extended sentence, the Secretary of State shall not be required to refer his case to the Parole Board before he [F8would be eligible to be released, or considered for release, from] that other sentence.
(4)Where the case of a prisoner to whom this section applies is referred to the Parole Board under this section or section 17(3) of this Act, the Board shall, if it is satisfied that it is no longer necessary for the protection of the public from serious harm that the prisoner should be confined (but not otherwise), direct that he should be released.
(5)If the Parole Board gives a direction under subsection (4) above, the Secretary of State shall release the prisoner on licence.]
