institution to respond to deficiencies and make improvements.  The structured recording and evaluation of complaints must be expanded continuously. 2.5.2.9. Personnel Conflict increases in the juvenile section of the Innsbruck correctional institution when there is contact with employees from the adult prisons The NPM has found that there is a significant accumulation of complaints from juveniles when they come into contact with employees of adult prisons. Such contact generally occurs when juvenile detainees are escorted to court or to an interrogation. The NPM emphasises that juveniles should ideally be escorted by employees who have training and experience in dealing with juveniles. Therefore, the NPM advocates ensuring that juveniles are escorted by “youth-friendly” officers. Escorting officers are “youthfriendly” when they have appropriate pedagogic training [see CPT/Inf/E (2002) 1 – Rev. 2010, p. 86]. Only escorted by trained personnel The Federal Ministry of Justice argues that the staff situation at the Innsbruck correctional institution is tight. As a consequence, juvenile detainees cannot solely be escorted by employees who are experienced in dealing with juveniles at the moment. However, in order to increase the number of prison guards who are experienced in dealing with juveniles, there is a plan to rotate five employees from the six night shift groups to the juvenile section in the future to give them appropriate training. Time-conscious training  The NPM recommends that only employees with pedagogic training escort juvenile detainees at the Innsbruck correctional institution. 2.5.3. Positive observations 2.5.3.1. Annexe to the Asten Centre for Forensic Science The annexe to the Therapeutic Centre in Asten breaks new ground. The centre is already fully dedicated to the care and therapy of inmates. The new construction optimises the already generous amount of space available. In the future, therapy rooms can be expanded into multi-purpose rooms when needed, due to movable walls. The inmates will be housed in one- and two-bed rooms. These will not have the usual massive cell doors, but regular, lockable room doors. Modern floorplan Every room will also have its own bathroom. The bathrooms will have generous dimensions. The shower area will be separated from the rest of the bathroom by a partition so that no water splashes into the Welcoming rooms 118
