(2)Except where paragraph (5) applies, an inmate who has the relevant deportation status must not be classified as suitable for open conditions.

(3)If, immediately before the relevant time—

(a)an inmate has been classified as suitable for open conditions; and

(b)the young offender institution receives notice after the relevant time that the inmate has the relevant deportation status,

the inmate’s classification must be reconsidered in accordance with this rule as soon as practicable after the young offender institution receives that notice.

(5)This paragraph applies if an inmate has been classified as suitable for open conditions and is located in open conditions immediately before the inmate’s classification is reconsidered, whether under paragraph (3) or (4) or otherwise.

(6)For the purposes of this rule, an inmate has the relevant deportation status if—

(a)there is a deportation order against the inmate under section 5(1) of the Immigration Act 1971; and

(b)no appeal under section 82(1) of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002 (“the 2002 Act”) that may be brought or continued from within the United Kingdom in relation to the decision to make the deportation order—

(i)could be brought (ignoring any possibility of an appeal out of time with permission), or

(ii)is pending (within the meaning of section 104 of the 2002 Act).

(7)In paragraph (6), the reference to the decision to make a deportation order includes a decision that section 32(5) of the UK Borders Act 2007 applies in respect of the inmate.

Release

Temporary release

5.—(1)Subject to paragraph (1A), the Secretary of State may, in accordance with the other provisions of this rule, release temporarily an inmate to whom this rule applies.

(a)on compassionate grounds or for the purpose of receiving medical treatment;

save that where an inmate falls within both of sub-paragraphs (a) and (b) above, the “relevant period", in the case of that inmate, shall be determined by whichever of the applicable sub-paragraphs that produces the longer period.

(8) An inmate released under this rule may be recalled at any time whether the conditions of his release have been broken or not.

(8A)If, immediately before the relevant time, an inmate has been released under this rule and the young offender institution has received notice that the inmate has the relevant deportation status, the inmate must be recalled unless—

(3)If an inmate is found guilty of more than one charge arising out of an incident, punishments under this rule may be ordered to run consecutively but, in the case of an award of additional days, the total period added shall not exceed 42 days and, in the case of a punishment of cellular confinement, the total period shall not exceed ten days.

(4)This rule applies to an inmate who has been charged with having committed an offence against discipline before the date on which the rule came into force, in the same way as it applies to an inmate who has been charged with having committed an offence against discipline on or after that date, provided the charge is referred to the adjudicator no later than 60 days after that date.

(5)Rule 58(3) shall not apply to a charge where, by virtue of paragraph (4), this rule applies to the inmate who has been charged.

Requirement to pay for damage to young offender institution property

60AB.—(1)This rule applies where an inmate is found guilty of an offence under rule 55(18) or 55(19) in respect of destroying or damaging any part of a young offender institution or any other property belonging to a young offender institution (“the relevant disciplinary offence”).

(2)The governor or, as the case may be, the adjudicator may require the inmate to pay towards the cost of making good the damage from, or replacing any property destroyed as a result of, the commission of the relevant disciplinary offence.

(3)A requirement imposed under paragraph (2) is referred to in this rule and in rules 60B, 64 and 64A as a “compensation requirement”.

(5)A compensation requirement may be imposed instead of or in addition to any punishment imposed under rule 60, 60A or 65.

(6)A compensation requirement ceases to have effect after two years from the date on which it was imposed regardless of whether or not the full amount has been paid.

Review of adjudicator’s punishment

60B.—(1)A reviewer means the Senior District Judge (Chief Magistrate) or any deputy of such a judge as nominated by that judge.

(2)Where an adjudicator imposes a punishment under rule 60A(1) or rule 65(1A), a compensation requirement under rule 60AB(2), or both an inmate may, within 14 days of receipt of the punishment or the imposition of the compensation requirement, whichever is later, request in writing that a reviewer conducts a review.

(3)The review must be commenced within 14 days of receipt of the request and must be conducted on the papers alone.

(4)The review may be of the punishment, the compensation requirement or both (whether or not the inmate requested a review of both) but must not be a review of the finding of guilt.

(5)On completion of the review, if it appears to the reviewer that the imposition of the punishment, the compensation requirement or both was manifestly unreasonable, he may do such of the following as he considers appropriate—

(a)reduce the number of any additional days awarded;

(b)for whatever punishment has been imposed by the adjudicator, substitute another punishment which is, in his opinion, less severe; ...

(c)quash the punishment entirely;

Confinement to a cell or room

61.—(1)Before deciding whether to impose a punishment of confinement to a cell or room, the governor, adjudicator or reviewer shall first enquire of a registered medical practitioner or registered nurse, working within the young offender institution, as to whether there are any medical reasons why the punishment is unsuitable and shall take this into account when making his decision.

(2) No cell or room shall be used as a detention cell or room for the purpose of a punishment of confinement to a cell or room unless it has been certified by an officer of the Secretary of State (not being an officer of a young offender institution) that it is suitable for the purpose; that its size, lighting, heating, ventilation and fittings are adequate for health; and that it allows the inmate to communicate at any time with an officer.

(2)A suspended punishment direction is a direction that the punishment is not to take effect, unless the inmate breaches a condition.

(3)A condition may be either that the inmate—

(a)does not commit another offence against discipline during a specified period (a “non-offending condition”), or

(b)complies with or completes a specified rehabilitative activity during a specified period (a “rehabilitative condition”).

(4)For the purposes of paragraph (3), a condition’s specified period may not be any longer than six months from the date of the direction.

(5)An adjudicator may only give a suspended punishment direction containing a non-offending condition.

(6)A governor may give a suspended punishment direction containing either a non-offending condition or one or more rehabilitative conditions.

(7)Subject to paragraph (11), where an inmate breaches a non-offending condition, the governor or adjudicator (as the case may be) must take one of the steps set out in paragraph (10).

(8)Where it appears to a governor that an inmate may have breached a rehabilitative condition without good reason, the governor must inquire into, and come to a finding as to, whether they had done so.

(9)If a governor finds that an inmate has without good reason breached a rehabilitative condition, the governor must take one of the steps set out in paragraph (10).

(10)The steps referred to in paragraphs (7) and (9) are—

(a)direct that the suspended punishment will be activated;

(b)reduce the period or amount of the suspended punishment and direct that it will be activated as so reduced;

(c)vary the original suspended punishment direction by substituting for the period specified a period expiring not later than six months from the date of variation;

(d)direct that the suspended punishment will not be activated and the suspended punishment direction will remain in force.

(11)A governor may not direct that a suspended punishment be activated where the suspended punishment is in respect of an award of additional days.

Remission and mitigation of punishments , variation of compensation requirements and quashing of findings of guilt

(1A)Where a compensation requirement has been imposed by a governor under rule 60AB(2), the Secretary of State may reduce the amount of the requirement.

(2)Subject to any directions given by the Secretary of State, the governor may, on the grounds of good behaviour, remit or mitigate any punishment already imposed by an adjudicator or governor.

Enforcement of compensation requirements

64A.—(1)Where a compensation requirement has been imposed under rule 60AB(2), the governor may debit any amount of money with which the inmate has been credited in the books of the young offender institution under rule 48(2) in order to recover the whole or part of the amount required to be paid under the compensation requirement.

(2)The amount debited under paragraph (1) on any occasion must not be such as to reduce below £5 the amount with which the inmate is credited in the books of the young offender institution under rule 48(2).

(b)in the case of an inmate who is a ... fixed-term prisoner, an award of additional days not exceeding 42 days.
