(2) the circumstances surrounding his present commitment;
(3) his history of delinquency; and
(4) any additional relevant matters.
(b) In making the evaluation prescribed in subsection (a), the department may utilize reports of any precommitment physical or mental examination or other information or records forwarded by the committing court or other agency, if that information meets the department's minimum standards for delinquent offender evaluation.
(c) If a committed offender has undergone, within one (1) year before the date of his commitment, a previous departmental evaluation under this section, the department may rely on the previous evaluation and the information used at that time.
