It needs to be noted here that as regards educational care proceedings, placement of a juvenile person in a youth care centre amounted to 3.6% of all educational care measures applied to juveniles in 2009, while in a youth sociotherapy centre - 2.4%. In most cases non-isolating measures were adjudicated, such as reprimand (31.7%), probation officer’s supervision (30.4%), parent or counselor supervision (10.9%). 23 Due to the fact of no visits to certain establishments in 2010, the figure does not take into account: Juvenile shelters, centres for foreigners applying for refugee status or asylum (all 4 were visited in 2009) and rooms for detained persons within Border Guard organizational units. 22
