62 9. Legislation-related powers of the NPM dance with the regime regulations”, in strict regime prisons,168 and “around the clock or periodically” in medium regime prisons.169 In light regime prisons, the doors of the cells and other accommodation units have to be “open during the day.”170 Keeping the hospital wards’ doors closed around the clock is prejudicial mainly to patients sentenced to light regime prison, since, during their treatment, they are subjected to restrictions stricter than their original sentencing, which results in an impropriety related to the rights to freedom and personal safety. In order to remedy and prevent the recurrence of this fundamental-rightsrelated impropriety, I requested the Minister of Justice to initiate the amendment of Section 99 of Act CCXL of 2013 on the execution of punishments, criminal measures, certain coercive measures and confinement for administrative offences, in order to define the rules of keeping open or closed the doors of hospital wards accommodating convicts with sentences of different regimes in the course of their medical treatment. Since, irrespective of several exchanges of correspondence, no substantial measure had been taken to remedy this fundamental-rights-related impropriety, I turned to the Parliament. 9.1.2. Ex-post review of norms If, in the course of my inquiries, I find that a fundamental rights-related impropriety is caused by a conflict between a self-government decree and another legal regulation, I may request the Curia to review the self-government decree’s compatibility with the other legal regulation.171 If I find a legal regulation in breach of the Fundamental Law or an international treaty, I may petition the Constitutional Court in order to have it reviewed.172 Performing the tasks of the NPM in 2016, I did not petition either the Curia or the Constitutional Court for ex-post review of norms. 9.2.
