In England and Wales, "parole" is defined as any system of early release from prison which is discretionary, with the decision whether or not to release being made after commencement of the prison sentence. It is considered that parole is an available system for solving the problem about the over-crowding in prison or the treatment of persons released from prisons in community. So, the reactivation of the practice of parole is profitable for the future treatment of persons offending, sentenced, and treated in or backed to communities. This article outlines the existing state of the practice of the parole system in Japan, issues the problems of it, and considers a means to solve problems above through examining the practice and a new trend of the parole system, especially the system for the persons sentenced life-sentence in England and Wales as a material for fumbling. It is considered that, in Japan, the parole system is not applying successful, because of the insufficiency of itself due to the shortage of revenue or probation officers. In turn, the system for the treatment of criminals in community as aftercare of released for parole, or community-based treatment in Japan is being made preparations. The practice and a new trend of the parole system in England and Wales as a material for fumbling are profitable for the development of these practices in Japan, when the parole system is combined with the programs for rehabilitation of persons to parole such as in the new trend above in England and Wales.
