This is the original version (as it was originally enacted).
(1)A priority removal notice remains in force until the end of the period of 12 months beginning with—
(a)the PRN cut-off date, or
(b)if later, the day on which any appeal rights of the PRN recipient in respect of a relevant claim are exhausted.
See section 82A of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002 (the “2002 Act”) for the consequences of a priority removal notice being in force.
(2)In subsection (1) “relevant claim” means a protection claim or a human rights claim brought by the PRN recipient while the priority removal notice is in force.

(a)the PRN recipient’s claim has been determined,
(b)the PRN recipient could not bring an appeal in respect of the claim under section 82 of the 2002 Act (ignoring any possibility of an appeal out of time with permission), and
(c)no appeal brought by the PRN recipient is pending within the meaning of section 104 of that Act.
(4)A priority removal notice remains in force until the end of the period mentioned in subsection (1) even if the PRN recipient ceases to be liable to removal or deportation from the United Kingdom during that period.
(5)A priority removal notice may not be served on a person in relation to whom such a notice is already in force (but this does not prevent a further notice from being served once the previous notice ceases to be in force as mentioned in subsection (1)).
(6)Subsection (7) applies if the PRN recipient has previously been served with—
(a)an evidence notice under section 18,
(b)a slavery or trafficking information notice under section 58, or
