4. Resources allocated to the Contrôleur général in 2015
This seventh year of operation of the institution was executed under the full authority of Adeline
HAZAN, who was appointed on 17 July 2014.
4.1
The staff
The money bill for 2015 raised the upper limit of authorised employment to 31 ETPT (full-time
workers), thus authorising three new jobs in order to support the expanding of the institution’s
competence in overseeing deportation measures from the territory of the foreign nationals as well
as to reinforce the number of inspectors in charge of referrals.
The Contrôleur général of places of deprivation of liberty was authorised to create two
additional jobs in management, at constant job-ceiling and payroll credits.
4.1.1
Permanent positions and external staff
On 16 January 2015, a Contrôleur général of the armed forces, provided by the Ministry of
Defence, was appointed as the secretary general for the job left vacant in 2014.
Three inspectors resigned from their posts in 2015. Two judges were called to exercise
higher responsibilities in early 2015. They were replaced, in July, with one director of the judicial
youth protection service and, in October, with one judge. One inspector, a former general in the
gendarmerie, exercised his right to retirement in late 2015. He will continue to provide the
institution with his experience as an external staff member.
Having been part of the institution ever since its creation, the financial director, the head
attaché and director of judicial affairs, and the chief court registrar have resigned from their posts.
The financial director was replaced in May with a head attaché, and the director of judicial affairs
with a judge, who arrived in November 2015.
Moreover, five job openings were created.
A journalist, a former editor in chief of the Nouvel Observateur, joined the CGLPL in March
2015. She exercises the tasks of oversight, but is mainly in charge of creating the scientific
committee and of processing transversal case-files.
Two inspectors in charge of referrals were recruited to carry out the on-site verifications as
provided for by the Law dated 26 May 2014.
A former member of the International Red Cross committee joined in July as an inspector
in charge of international affairs. It is preferred for the international competence to be coordinated
in the CGLPL by one dedicated person, especially in the context of exercising new competences
as regards the deportation measures of foreign nationals.
Finally, an archivist, on secondment from the inter-departmental corps of attachés of the
State government, was appointed in September. She is also in charge of monitoring the
recommendations.
In 2015, ten external staff members were appointed.
The choice was made to expand the oversight teams with external staff members, especially
qualified in sectors closely related to the core of the institution’s tasks. The main people called to
collaborate on oversight tasks were: one lawyer specialising in criminal law, a former social affairs
inspector, the former recently retired head of the public health centre of the Versailles hospital,
