This prison service instruction (PSI) explains the role of prisons in supporting the repatriation and removal of foreign national offenders and immigration detainees from the UK.

It covers:

• release, discharge and transfer procedures for foreign national offenders
• the rights of foreign national offenders to clear and independent advice and access to consular representatives

This is a current PSI. It came into effect on 18 November 2011.
