A Monitoring Guide 43 The “Expectations” used for assessing the conditions and treatment experienced by men in prisons include specific indicators to assess whether the specific needs of prisoners “of all sexual orientations” are met, by looking at evidence of staff training, promotion of acceptance of all sexual orientations, the existence of guidelines for prisoners about what behaviours are acceptable, and the availability of support groups or schemes within the prison or of referrals to external support networks. Similarly, the “Expectations” have a set of indicators for both trans and intersex detainees, which include evidence that the views of the prisoner are taken into consideration in placement decisions, of access to appropriate medical treatment and other specialist support for prisoners wishing to begin gender reassignment, and to specific items, as well as of the use of proper name and pronouns, access to counselling services, and staff training to better meet trans prisoners’ needs. “Expectations” used for assessing the conditions and treatment of women in prison similarly include indicators to assess whether women “of all sexual orientations” are treated equitably and according to their individual needs. “Expectations” used for children and young people, as well as for detainees in immigration detention, also include indicators regarding sexual orientation and gender identity. HMIP’s “Expectations” are regularly reviewed and civil society organisations are encouraged to contribute to the reviews. 4. Composition of monitoring teams Due consideration should be given to the composition of visiting teams tasked with monitoring the treatment of LGBTI persons deprived of liberty. Not all monitoring bodies will have the same leeway with regards to determining a team’s composition, depending primarily on the size of the institution, its budget, and the range of expertise available internally. The type and size of facility to be visited (e.g. prison, immigration detention facility, police station) also must be taken into account when determining the skills and Chapter II against which inspectors monitor prisons and other establishments. HMIP has devised specific “Expectations” for different types of facilities falling under its remit (e.g. immigration detention facilities, armed forces service custody facilities, police custody facilities) or by specific prison populations (e.g. men, women, children and young people).
