Article 25 Visits
Subject to such reasonable limits and conditions as are imposed by the Secretary of State, a detained person may receive as many visits from persons outside the short-term holding facility as the detained person wishes.
A visit to a detained person must take place in the sight of an officer unless the Secretary of State directs otherwise.
Subject to rule 27 (legal adviser) a visit to a detained person must take place out of the hearing of an officer unless the Secretary of State otherwise directs in a particular case in the interests of the security of the short-term holding facility or the safety of the detained person or other persons, in which case the detained person must be given reasons for the direction in advance.
A person visiting a detained person at a short-term holding facility must not, without the authority of the Secretary of State—
take a photograph whilst there;
take any other form of digital or electronic record whilst there.
