Partially- the Scottish Parliament has the power to override Westminster and to decide whether someone should be allowed to return to their home country if they are living in Scotland, but wanted for detention on criminal charges by the UK Government. But it cannot stop someone from being compulsorily deported if Westminster orders them to be- so in other words, Scotland can ALLOW deportation if it is prevented by Westminster, but not PREVENT deportation if the UK Government demands it.
