Explanation:
There are different reasons for redesignating a prisoner to a different correctional facility. Two of these reasons are:
-To spend the final weeks of the sentence in a place that is near to where the prisoner will live after he/she is released and the idea of this is to allow the person to make links and make arrangements for their release with family.
-Because of safety concerns when a prisoner is having serious problems with other prisoners and the staff believes that there is a high security risk because of threats that have been identified.
