Male/female composition of staff as on 31 December 2016 Men 44% Women 56% Trainees and casual employees The Chief inspector of places of deprivation of liberty received twelve trainees during the year, who came from civil service schools, professional training institutions or French universities. Professional training institutions Civil service schools (ENM, ENAP, IRA) Universities 4 3 5 Number of trainees received Two casual contract employees helped to develop the Chief Inspectorate's tools (intranet) and classify the institution's archives before they were transferred to the national collection. 5.2 Financial resources The CGLPL's financial resources progressed in terms of staff appropriations compared with the previous year: €4.089m were opened in 2016 versus €3.750m in 2015, which amounts to 9% more appropriations to cover the two new jobs anticipated in the 2015 management strategy. That said, amid more or less full employment, the institution's room for manoeuvre has diminished, without this posing any difficulty in terms of staff expense management. The operating funds dipped slightly (€1.020m of payment appropriations opened in 2016 versus €1.044m in 2015, which amounts to 2.3% of appropriations) mainly due to a budgetary regulation measure carried out during the year. In 2016, the institution's fiscal abundance therefore reduced for the following reasons: - a context of almost full employment in terms of staff expenses; - the extension of the premises in 2015, required because of the expanding staff members, but which was not offset by a new payment appropriation measure; - the stability of a full staff which leads, on the one hand, to an increase in overhead expenses and, on the other, to more inspections of places of deprivation of liberty; - the additional regulation measure which affects the fiscal sustainability on operating funds. 122
