[F1Review of adjudicator’s punishmentE+W

60B.(1) A reviewer means [F2the Senior District Judge (Chief Magistrate)] or any deputy of such a judge as nominated by that judge.

(2) Where a punishment is imposed by an adjudicator under rule 60A(1) or rule 65(1A) an inmate may, within 14 days of receipt of the punishment, request in writing that a reviewer conducts a review.

(3) The review must be commenced within 14 days of receipt of the request and must be conducted on the papers alone.

(4) The review must only be of the punishment imposed and must not be a review of the finding of guilt.

(5) On completion of the review, if it appears to the reviewer that the punishment imposed was manifestly unreasonable, he may—

(a)reduce the number of any additional days awarded;

(b)for whatever punishment has been imposed by the adjudicator, substitute another punishment which is, in his opinion, less severe; or

(c)quash the punishment entirely.

(6) An inmate requesting a review shall serve any additional days awarded under rule 60A(1)(b) or 65(1A)(b) unless and until they are reduced.]
