71 which I think should be informed of the fundamental-rights-related improprieties uncovered in order to facilitate their activities aimed at improving detention conditions and the detainees’ treatment. The visiting plan is based on the recommendations made in the report on the previous visit and aims at re-examining circumstances causing or potentially leading to fundamental-rights-related improprieties. The primary objective of the new visit is to check the implementation of the recommendations made in the report on the previous visit. 10.3. Setting up the follow-up visiting delegation When setting up the visiting delegation, in addition to maintaining gender balance, ensuring multidisciplinarity, and involving experts in the field of protecting national and ethnic minority rights, I also tried to include as many colleagues as possible who are familiar with the given place of detention. 10.4. Conducting the follow-up visit Follow-up visits are conducted in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Ombudsman Act and the professional rules and methods specified in CFR Directive 3/2015. (XI. 30.) AJB. The follow-up visit provides an opportunity to deepen the constructive dialog with the personnel of the given place of detention, conducted before in writing, on the findings of the previous visit, the recommendations of the report prepared thereon, the ways and means of their implementation, and the changes that occurred in the meantime. It may result in an increased readiness from the part of the staff members to cooperate in the implementation of the recommendations aimed at improving detention conditions and the detainees’ treatment. 10.5. Concluding the follow-up visit Upon completing the follow-up visit, the members of the visiting delegation summarize and share their experiences with the staff of the given place of detention, 213 and specify the documents that the personnel of the given place of detention must hand over to me. During this feedback session, the members of the visiting delegation share with the management of the place of detention their newly gathered positive and negative experiences in connection with the implementation of the recommendations of the previous report, the detainees’ treatment, and the detention conditions. 10.6. Processing and evaluating the experiences of the follow-up visit The members of the visiting delegation process the experiences gained and information obtained at the given place of detention. The head of the visiting delegation drafts a short memo for me on the most important findings of the visit as compared to those of the previous inspection, then prepares a short summary report on the visit which, upon my approval, is published, both in the Hungarian and English languages, on the NPM’s homepage. 213 See Clause 27 of the Analytical assessment tool for national preventive mechanisms (CAT/OP/1/Rev. 1.)
