immigration detention with the authority of the Detention Gatekeeper, who will ensure
that there is no evidence of vulnerability which would be exacerbated by detention,
that return will occur within a reasonable timeframe and check that any proposed detention
is lawful.</p><p> </p><p>Separately, Case Progression Panels have been introduced
to review all cases within immigration detention by a peer-led panel. These panels
focus on ensuring that there is progression toward return for all individuals detained,
and that detention remains lawful.</p>
