The main statutory functions are to inspect and report to the relevant Secretary of State on the conditions for and treatment of those detained in Prisons and young offender institutions in England and Wales, and immigration removal centres, short term holding facilities and escorts in England, Wales and Scotland. In addition, HMIP inspects by invitation prison establishments in other jurisdictions.
