Section 51 of the UK's Immigration Act 2016 introduced a new power to conduct strip‐searches for nationality documents on those held in immigration detention or in prisons. Unlike in previous case law, the goal of this new power appears to be administrative efficiency, rather than safety and security. This article describes the wider legal context of the measure and analyses it from a human rights perspective. This includes an in‐depth examination of the administrative justification for this new power as well as a critical look at some of the issues with strip‐searching in practice.

剥离搜索国籍文件

英国《 2016年移民法》第51条引入了一项新权力，可以对在移民拘留所或监狱中关押的人员进行国籍文件的脱衣搜查。与以前的判例法不同，这种新权力的目标似乎是行政效率，而不是安全和保障。本文介绍了该措施的更广泛的法律背景，并从人权的角度对其进行了分析。这包括对这种新权力的行政理由进行深入研究，并在实践中批判性地研究一些问题。
