Saint John MP Rodney Weston says he is personally troubled with the number of high risk offenders being released into our community.
He says many people are expressing concerns to him over safety and protecting famillies.
After speaking with local police and the federal office of Public Safety, Weston says its clear changes need to be made with how known sex offenders are released, what information should be made available to the public and the locations where they are to be released.
Weston says he'll be working with the Minister of Public Safety and the province to examine the current provisions in place.
He's calling for stronger rules to ensure more public disclosure of information surrounding the release of high rish sex offenders and the application of conditions to their release which protect the public interest.
