Dungavel IRC is an immigration removal centre. It opened in 2001, initially under Premier Prison Services, which at that time was a subsidiary jointly owned by Serco and Wackenhut Corporation.[1] The centre continued under Serco management until 2006, when it was taken over by G4S up to 2011. Since September 2011 it has been run by the Geo Group UK under a five year Home Office contract.
