The next parole board hearing for Charles Bronson will be take place in public.
The board granted an application for the case of the notorious prisoner to be heard in public. A date is yet to be set for the hearing for Bronson, now known as Charles Salvador, who is currently imprisoned at high-security HMP Woodhill in Milton Keynes.
In a document, board chairwoman Caroline Corby said: "I have concluded that a public hearing is in the interests of justice in the case of Mr Salvador. I therefore grant the application for the hearing to be held in public."

Bronson, who lived in Ellesmere Port, has spent many of his 50 years in jail in solitary confinement. The now 70-year-old, was first sent to prison in 1974 for armed robbery.
However during his time inside he has taken hostages in ten prison sieges, attacked at least 20 prison officers and caused £500,000 in damage in rooftop protests. He is currently serving a life sentence for taking prison art teacher Phil Danielson hostage at HMP Hull after he criticised one of his drawings.
He has earned the name of Britain's most violent and notorious prisoner due to his actions towards other prisoners and officers. Irene, Bronson's first wife, has previously told the ECHO he is hoping he will be released from prison following a parole hearing this year and plans to take her out for a meal.
