Moreover, in 2014 the proportion of case referrals sent by families, associations and lawyers increased considerably.

However, there is still room for progress insofar as families are still very hesitant to refer cases to the CGLPL (probably through fear of the impact that it may have upon the treatment of their close relation deprived of liberty). Associations and even CDSPs should not hesitate to consider the CGLPL as an intermediary for their concerns and observations. Their close relations with and knowledge of places of hospitalisation constitute a major asset for the CGLPL, if only in terms of prioritising the inspections to be planned. As far as places of detention of illegal immigrants are concerned, the number of cases referred remains stable. Since the whole of the places of detention of illegal immigrants have been visited at least once, the CGLPL will be able to refine its approach to ensuring respect for fundamental rights at the time of the second visits by placing still greater importance upon procedures and the effectiveness of the measures put in place for detainees, particularly in 52
