Annual Report 2016 - Spain’s National Preventive Mechanism against Torture Processing of 120. During all our visits we appraised application of the disciplinary disciplinary regime, checking that all proceedings are diligently processed since their proceedings §249 filing date and until a resolution is delivered, and are adequately AR 2014 documented. Nevertheless, in San Francisco-La Biznaga (Málaga) and in Zambrana (Valladolid) it was noted that, in some cases, the necessary expediency does not exist between commission of an offence and the filing of disciplinary proceedings, or between a sanction and its enforcement, which is why young offenders tend to dissociate one from the other, given the delay in giving a sanctioning response to a reproachable act. In both cases the autonomous administrations have reported that measures have been adopted to enable a speedier processing. In Monteledo (Ourense) some shortcomings were discovered, such as submitting an interim measure in a file instead of a sanction; on another occasion, the list of charges did not designate an examining judge or did not state the beginning and end of the sanction imposed, or a decrease in the sanction or its possible payment. Sanctions communicated to lawyers §249 AR 2014 Records of disciplinary proceedings and of restraining measures §250 and 254 AR 2014 84 121. Only at the Monteledo and Montefiz (Ourense) facilities did we check that when a disciplinary sanction is applied it is notified, in addition to the relevant institutions, to the lawyer assigned to the sanctioned minor. Pursuant to the provisions established in Article 76.2 of the Regulations on Organic Act 5/2000, of 12 January, on the criminal liability of minors, it is not mandatory to inform the young offender’s lawyer. This is why, in order to change this, a Recommendation was made to the Ministry of Justice, which has been accepted and is pending execution. 122. All the facilities visited have Register Books, which are kept manually, recording all disciplinary proceedings and the application of restraining measures, in 6 of these there were also computerised programmes to obtain statistics on the type of sanction imposed, the type of offence committed, the number of offences committed by a specific minor, the number of proceedings filed, etc., as well as any restraining measures used, the minors subject to the same, the length of these measures and the reasons why they were used, whether involving mechanical restraint, personal/physical restraint, rubber batons or provisional isolation. The San Francisco-La Biznaga (Málaga), El Madroño (Madrid), Maliaño (Cantabria) and El Limonar (Seville) facilities lacked this instrument, which is why a Suggestion has been made to provide these computer programmes.
