"Period following their release" sure seems to suggest something short-term (as in same day/next day/second day), but as we know, words can be twisted. Technically, is a next-month assignment considered "period following their release"?

Also, it allows for "an assignment of a rest period beginning as early as their release time." Well, again, something next month is not any earlier than release time.

So my answer would be that I don't think it's notification (and I don't think it should be), but I'm not 100% sure without official guidance.
