# The Repatriation of Prisoners (Overseas Territories) Order 1986, Paragraph 7: Expenses


(2) Subject to subsections (3) and (4) below, it shall be the duty of the Governor, in the case of the transfer of a person into the Territory under this Act, to secure the payment to him by that person, or from some other source, of the amount of any expenses incurred by him in connection with the conveyance of that person to the Territory; and for this purpose the Governor shall have the same power as in any other case where he assists the return of a person to the Territory to require a person to give an undertaking to pay the Governor the whole or any part of that amount, to enforce such an undertaking and to make such other arrangements for recovering that amount as he thinks fit.
(3) Subsection (2) above shall not apply to the extent that in any case it appears to the Governor that it would be unreasonable for him to exercise any of the powers conferred by that subsection either because of the exceptional circumstances of the case or because the means of the prisoner are insufficient to meet the expenses and their recovery, whether immediately or at some future time, from the prisoner or from any other source is impracticable.
(4) The expenses mentioned in subsections (2) and (3) above shall not include—
(a) any expenses of providing an escort for a person transferred into the Territory under this Act; or
(b) any expenses of the conveyance of such a person beyond the place at which he first arrives in the Territory.
