makes a decision to impose a disciplinary sanction. In the decision, the director imposes the disciplinary sanction and gives an explanation for the adopted decision. The legal lesson on the possibility to submit an appeal to the decision of the director to the Director of the Directorate for Execution of Sanctions at the Ministry of Justice within three days, is an integral part of the decision. The convicted person signs the decision proving that he received it. In case of refusal to sign, it shall be stated in writing in the decision and the person who was rejected when handing over the decision shall sign. Refusal to accept the decision does not delay the implementation of the decision. The data on the initiated procedures and imposed disciplinary sanctions are an integral part of the file of the convicted persons. The established practice of conducting proceedings and imposing disciplinary penalties is in accordance with Directive No. 55 of the Second General Report of the CPT, as well as the above-mentioned standards related to conducting the procedure for establishing disciplinary liability emphasized by the UN Committee against Torture. There are no conditions for serving a solitary confinement in the Prilep Prison Penitentiary, so in case of a serious disciplinary offense, the Commission imposes solitary confinement, without the right to work, conditioned for two or three months (maximum duration of the sentence). During the mentioned months, the convicted person has a ban on benefits. 3.2.7. Resocialization The expert team in the Department of Resocialization consists of 2 psychologists, one sociologist (head of department) and two instructors. Due to the lack of employees, all activities from the reception of the convicted person to the realization of the measure and the overall treatment are organized by the employees in this Department. In the treatment activities, the convicts are divided into three groups and each educator is responsible for about 30 convicts. The Head of the Department pointed out that individual work with convicts is the most common, most often at their request. Group work is represented every two months with educational topics, because they do not have enough time to organize group work once a week. Most often, conversations with convicts are about their personal problems, the realization of their rights, as well as changes in their mental state. The talks are of informative-educational nature. They work with their families and help them overcome family problems. In terms of opportunities for reintegration and resocialization, after being released from prison, they are referred to the Centre for Social Work, but the employees of this Department do not have information about occurrences happening after serving the sentence. Regarding the relations between the Department of Resocialization and the convicted persons, it was concluded that they are at a satisfactory level, based on mutual respect and cooperation. www. ombudsman.mk 125
