The SPT and the CPT shall be informed regularly of the activities of the Federal Agency. They shall receive the summary and a copy of the Annual Report in English. The recommendations contained in individual visit reports may also be translated and forwarded on request. An exchange shall take place with the Federal Agency, both in the run-up to visits by both bodies and subsequently. 8.2 Cooperation with other NPMs and NHRIs (National Human Rights Institutions) Regular contacts shall be maintained with other NPMs/NHRIs (e.g. German Institute for Human Rights). Since the Federal Agency is one of the first newlycreated prevention mechanisms in accordance with the OPCAT, bodies which are still nascent may rely on the experience of the Federal Agency. Joint workshops or events are to take place in future in order to further the mutual exchange of experience. 137
