Extract from the Colonial Prisoners Removal Act, 1884
Section 2 reads:
Prisoners Removal
A 2nd Plato, e cat
Where as regards a prisoner undergoing sentence
of imprisonment in any British possession for any offence it appears to the removing authority herein-after
mentioned either
>
(a) that it is likely that the life of the prisoner
will be endangered or his health permanently
injured by further imprisonment in such British
possession; or,
(b) that the prisoner belonged, at the time of
committing the said offence, to the Royal Navy
or to Her Majesty's regular military forces;
(c) that the offence was committed wholly or partly
beyond the limits of the said British possession;
or,
(d) that by reason of there being no prison in the
said British possession in which the prisoner
can properly undergo his sentence or otherwise
the removal of the prisoner is expedient for
his safer custody or for more efficiently
carrying his sentence into effect; or,
(e) that the prisoner belongs to a class of persons
who under the law of the said British possession
are subject to removal under this Act;
in any such case the removing authority may, subject neverthe-
less to the regulations in force under this Act, order such
prisoner to be removed to any British possession or to the
United Kingdom to undergo his sentence or the residue thereof."
