Abstract

Discusses the "Principles Relating to the Detention and Interviewing of Detainees Overseas and the Passing and Receipt of Intelligence Relating to Detainees" intended to avoid the UK's indirect complicity in the mistreatment or torture of persons detained by its allies abroad, and reviews their constitutional status. Examines their legal context and key provisions, their relationship with the Consolidated Guidance, and their evolution since 2010.
