8 Liechtenstein, not only in terms of substantive law, but also in terms of procedural rules guaranteeing the right of the person to contest the measures. Legislative projects in this regard could be considered, using, for instance, the existing Austrian model of the Nursing Home Residence Act – an approach the NPM would support. The NPM can report to the Government that the conditions encountered in St. Martin House are excellent. The NPM also recommends that the Government consider creating a legal foundation to govern restrictions of freedom in retirement and nursing facilities. III. REVIEW AND OUTLOOK With the conclusion of the year 2016, the first year of the four-year mandate period of the NPM has come to an end. Looking back, it can again be said this year that the conditions for persons deprived of liberty in Liechtenstein are by and large very good. The NPM assumes that the clarifications on the strategic reorientation of the National Prison – which have been going on for quite a while – will be completed and implemented in 2017. Beyond this, it would be desirable if the Government were to consider creating a legal foundation to govern restrictions of freedom in retirement and nursing facilities. Vaduz, 24 January 2017
