juvenile detention centres (as at 1 December 2017) and penal institutions (as at 1 November 2017).

The number of follow-up visits is respectively one in 2009, five in 2010, six in 2011, ten in 2012, seven in 2013, thirty-six
in 2014, sixty-one in 2015, fifty-two in 2016 and forty-one in 2017. Due to certain structures closing down during these
nine years, the number of places visited at least once can be greater than the number of institutions to be inspected.
