246for an appropriate number of parole ineligible inmates committed
247to the department and incarcerated within the state who have
248been determined by the authority to be eligible for
249discretionary early release pursuant to this section. In
250establishing control release dates, it is the intent of the

258released. Such assessment shall be a part of the department's

260sole responsibility for determining control release eligibility,
261establishing a control release date, and effectuating the
262release of a sufficient number of inmates to maintain the inmate
263population between 99 percent and 100 percent of total capacity.
264Inmates who are ineligible for control release are inmates who
265are parole eligible or inmates who:
266     (j)  Are convicted, or have been previously convicted, of
267DUI manslaughter under s. 316.193(3)(c)3., and are sentenced, or
268have been sentenced at any time, as a habitual offender for such
269offense, or have been sentenced at any time in another
270jurisdiction as a habitual offender for such offense;
271
272In making control release eligibility determinations under this
273subsection, the authority may rely on any document leading to or
274generated during the course of the criminal proceedings,
275including, but not limited to, any presentence or postsentence
276investigation or any information contained in arrest reports
277relating to circumstances of the offense.
278     Section 8.  This act shall take effect October 1, 2005, and
279shall apply to offenses committed on or after that date.
