emerges from the previous description of the very unfavourable design of the rooms, even if the surface area of the rooms as such does not violate constitutional minimum standards. There are no partitions or other facilities between the individual showers of the common shower rooms protecting privacy. The Commission recommends fitting the shower rooms with partitions (cf. also p. 22). The Ministry is said to be going to have the prison rooms of the prisons subsequently fitted with partitions and to take the installation of partitions into consideration in the planning of new building projects. Requests for talks with the psychological and social pedagogical services are frequently not complied with for weeks, according to the inmates. Ten staff members in the social service and five psychologists take care of approximately 800 inmates. Talks with the specialist services could take place on request as a rule once per month. Only 285 of the current number of 705 male inmates were in work on 28 July 2011. The Commission considers measures to improve the jobs offered to be indispensable, and requests to be informed of the measures that are planned. It is said to be intended to create additional jobs. The establishment of an internal or company workshop is currently being examined. 6. Prison for women in Chemnitz in July 2011 The Commission of the Länder carried out an inspection visit in Chemnitz prison on 29 July 2011. Because of construction measures, the occupancy of cells was increased since a wing temporarily cannot be occupied because of construction work. This means that accommodation conditions in Chemnitz prison are currently very constricted. The Reichenhain area, which was inspected by the Commission, had 194 detention places at the time of the visit, 170 of which were occupied. The Commission inspected the following sub-areas in particular: a criminal detention department with a sanitary area, an examination department and a department for detention awaiting deportation, a mother-and-child department, a disciplinary detention cell, a specially-secured cell with no dangerous objects, a clothing store, the visiting area, the sports rooms, exterior facilities for outdoor exercise and sport, as well as leisure areas. It additionally inspected inmates’ files. Talks were carried out with the prison governor, additional staff members and the chair of the staff council. Additionally, discussions were held with several inmates and the prisoners’ co-responsibility body. The requested documents were already handed over to the Commission of the Länder in full on the visiting day. 49
