This report provides an account of the October 2014 thematic consultation of government experts on grounds and procedures for internment and detainee transfers. The consultation was part of the ICRC's Strengthening International Humanitarian Law initiative, and was organized pursuant to Resolution 1 of the 31st International Conference of the Red Cross and Red Crescent. A previous thematic consultation – on conditions of detention and particularly vulnerable detainees – was also held in 2014, and is the subject of a separate report.
