Detainees' Charter: Inquest and JCWI have produced a charter for immigration prisoners. Acknowledging in its preamble that detention for immigrants and asylum-seekers is abhorrent and wrong it then sets out a series of demands which while not ending detention will subject it to proper judicial control and ensure that there are safeguards. The demands include setting an absolute time limit on immigration detention which is currently unlimited and automatic rights of challenge to all detentions.
