The Parole Board says it will consider a request for Bronson's hearing to be held in public.
Notorious prisoner Charles Bronson has become the first person to formally ask for a public Parole Board hearing after rules were changed.
A date has not yet been set for his next parole review, although it typically takes at least 12 weeks before any such hearing could take place. Under the reforms, the prisoners in question, government ministers and officials are among some who can request the case is not discussed behind closed doors.
These include the wishes of the victim or victims, any risks of trauma to the victims or their families, any particular vulnerability of the prisoner, risks to the safety of the prisoner, and whether witnesses' evidence would be affected.
