# §2.31. Parole to detainers: Statement of policy.

- (a) Where a detainer is lodged against a prisoner, the Commission may grant parole if the prisoner in other respects meets the criteria set forth in [§ 2.18](/cfr/28/2.18.md). The presence of a detainer is not in itself a valid reason for the denial of parole.
- (b) The Commission will cooperate in working out arrangements for concurrent supervision with other jurisdictions where it is feasible and where release on parole appears to be justified.
