  As for juvenile training school parolees, the percentage of those who were granted early discharge from parole (those whose parole was terminated earlier by a request from the director of a probation office or a decision by a Regional Parole Board) has been between 17% and 20% since 1996, and the percentage of those who completed the term has been around 65%.The percentage of those who were returned to a juvenile training school (those who were returned to a juvenile training school by a decision of a family court in response to a proposal from the director of a probation office and a request from a Regional Parole Board) or those who received revocation of protective measures (those whose former treatment was revoked because they were placed under new treatment due to repeating delinquency or offense) has been between 15% and 18% since 1998.
