Premise: A parole program offers prisoners a chance to be released from prison early subject to various conditions.  

Conclusion: A violence risk assessment conducted by a qualified psychologist is an essential step in an effective parole screening process because such an assessment will prevent prisoners who are unsuitable for early release from being considered for parole. 

Asked: The conclusion above depends upon which of the following assumptions? 

Quote:
A. The parole board is not legally obligated to accept the recommendations of the violence risk assessment report prepared by a qualified psychologist. 

Quote:
B. A parole screening process will surely be effective if it includes a violence risk assessment conducted by a qualified psychologist. 

Quote:
C. A prisoner who is not assessed to pose a high risk of re-offending should be released from prison without conditions. 

Quote:
D. Psychologists conducting violence risk assessments are able to identify those prisoners who are unsuitable for early release. 
If this statement is NOT TRUE then the conclusion falls apart.
Correct

Quote:
E. Prisoners applying for parole need not undergo a violence risk assessment if they were imprisoned for a non-violent offence. 

IMO D
