Such a dialogue is conducted to indicate the merits of the NMPT’s recommendations whose implementation will strengthen the protection of the rights of persons deprived of their liberty at the visited place. During the visits, NMPT employees use the following measuring and recording devices: CEM DT-8820 multimeters, Makita LD060P laser rangefinders and digital cameras.
