The Board will not be making any further comment.
Burdett was raped and bludgeoned to death in her Papatoetoe home in 1992.
During the homicide investigation swabs were taken from her body but for years the DNA taken did not match any existing record on the police databank.
In 1996 the DNA was then found to match that of Rewa and he was arrested and charged with Burdett's rape and murder on May 13 that year.
He was also charged with sexual and violent offences against several other women.
Rewa also recently failed in a bid to stop a third trial over the murder of Burdett.
