The name of the list, or the organization that manages the list
Prison Estates Register - managed as a gov.uk register by Ministry of Justice at https://prison-estate.register.gov.uk/
A suggested code for the list [optional]
GB-PRISON or GB-PER (Prison Estates Register)
PRISON feels more intuitive.
A short description of the list
Described as 'A part of the Prison Estate in England and Wales, including public and contracted prisons, and HMPPS Immigration Removal Centres.'
This suggests it can cover prisons which might have a separate legal identity of their own, and might not be comprehensive for all prisons.
The country or countries that the list covers
United Kingdom: England & Wales
The legal form or organizations that the list covers
Varied - government entities and private companies (but might be better to tag as only government entities)
Any specific sectors that the list covers
Justice
A URL for information on the list, and a URL for looking up identifiers [if available]
https://prison-estate.register.gov.uk/
Any information on available open data copies of this list
Name, start and end-date are available, using gov.uk register approach.
One or more examples of identifier from this list, and how you found them
