Program Description
The FY 2001 Appropriations Act created a DOJ Detention Trustee to coordinate detention policy and resource requirements. The Trustee shall exercise all power and functions authorized by law relating to the detention of federal prisoners in non-federal institutions or otherwise in the custody of the USMS, and the detention of aliens in the custody of the INS. The Trustee is responsible for overseeing the construction of detention facilities; the management of funds appropriated to the Department for detention functions; and the direction of the USMS and INS with respect to detention policy setting and operations throughout the Department. DOJ is currently in the process of selecting the Detention Trustee.
