Toiletries Confiscation of bras Women Searches In custody facilities, "hygiene kits" must contain sufficient amounts of feminine hygiene products. Since its 2008 annual report, the CGLPL has not let up in its criticism of the practice whereby women placed in custody have their bra confiscated systematically, for it deems this to be a slight on the dignity of women in custody and out of proportion with the risk. Concerning custody, the CGLPL reiterates the recommendations it made in its 2011 annual report: "on the subject of searches, the principle according to which they may only be conducted by officers of the same sex is not always possible in practice where women are concerned […] particularly because there are not enough female staff on the night shifts. Since this situation is the exclusive responsibility of the authorities, in such a case the decision must be made that no search of any kind (including security frisking) may be carried out". 161 2 2 2
