Known as the Little Pebble, Kamm was jailed after being found guilty of repeated sex offences against minors.
In a meeting yesterday, the State Parole Authority ‘‘formed an intention to refuse parole’’ when his non-parole period ends on April 13.
Unless paroled, Kamm will remain in prison until his 10-year sentence ends in October 2015.
The authority found the 62-year-old Kamm has so far failed to participate in a program to address his offending behaviour.
The Probation and Parole Service recommended SPA refuse Kamm’s parole.
A Probation and Parole Service report said: “Given the nature of the inmate’s offences … it is considered beneficial that Mr Kamm undertake the treatment program in custody. Given that Mr Kamm … remains an untreated sex offender, his release to parole is not recommended.’’
Kamm can now make application to the authority for a review hearing to be held.
