Annual review therefore paid particular attention to how conflicts and violence are handled and whether and what preventive measures are taken. The Commission’s findings and recommendations on federal asylum centres were summarised in the final report4 published in January 2021. NCPT observers accompanied forced return flights (enforcement level 4)5. They occasionally also observed police-escorted returns to the airport as well as the organisational measures taken at airports to accompany returnees to their scheduled flights (enforcement levels 2 and 3). Due to the presence of regular passengers on board, the police deliberately refrained from escorting returnees on flights. In addition, the Commission handled individual cases involving fundamental rights and held various discussions with the relevant contact persons. 1.3 Strategic development In May, the Commission received the report from the UN Subcommittee on Prevention of Torture (SPT)6 concerning its visit to Switzerland in February 2019. During this visit, an NCPT delegation met twice with the foreign experts to discuss both technical and methodological concerns. Based on these discussions and on the jointly conducted follow-up visit to the Bern Regional Prison, the SPT submitted a detailed report to the Commission and another report to the Federal Council. In its reports, the SPT calls for additional financial and human resources to be allocated to the Commission. The Commission Chair subsequently held various discussions with the General Secretariat of the Federal Department of Justice and Police (GS-FDJP) to increase resources for the Commission and in particular for the Secretariat.
