missing. As a reason for non-execution of the recommendations of the NPM most often is given the lack of financial resources and / or buildings. It is unacceptable the opinion received in response to the recommendations for building accessible environment in various institutions that the environment is not suitable for access by persons with disabilities, as the profile of the service is not designated for people with physical disabilities or because at the time of the inspection no people with disabilities are accommodated there. In 2013 the NPM made a total of 367 recommendations. Of these, 64 have not been met, and 8 have not been considered. In the second year of operation of the NPM a strong increase of the recommendations implemented is being noticed. As a condition giving rise to the inability to implement the recommendations of the NPM, most often is highlighted the lack of funds. As part of the recommendations are related to the staffing of the inspected establishments, in their responses to the NPM the competent institutions state information on the unattractiveness of the posts and the lack of candidates for their occupation. The NPM assumes that this is a clear indicator of low pay and remoteness of the inspected establishments from the settlements and it is a prerequisite for violation of the rights of persons accommodated / detained in these institutions. In 2014 the reports of the NPM made 174 recommendations concerning the establishments visited. The reduced budget of the institution of the Ombudsman imposed limitation of the number of inspections carried out by the NPM. The focus of the inspections was set on the persons seeking or granted international protection in the refugee centres, detention institutions for minor and juvenile and penitentiary establishments. During its inspections the NPM followed up also the process of deinstitutionalisation of institutions offering social and medical care for children and persons with disabilities. Due to the problems appeared in the inspections of the teams, as a national ombudsman, acting for the NPM, I called MI and SAR to get acquainted the structural subdivisions with the activities and the powers of the Ombudsman, including in terms of timely access to the places for inspection to the representatives of the NPM as well as with the powers of the NPM's employees to use camera, sound and video recorders, devices measuring noise, temperature, humidity, and other measuring instruments necessary for the purpose of the visit regulated in Art. 30 para 3 of the Rules on Organization and Activity of the Ombudsman. 54
