and there was no protection against bad weather conditions. The CPT recommended that steps be taken to ensure that all inmates have the possibility to take their daily outdoor exercise in conditions which enable them to physically exert themselves. Further, all exercise yards should be equipped with some protection against inclement weather and, preferably, offer a horizontal outside view.160. The remand prison Warszawa-Białołęka has not implemented the recommendation. The walking yard was still equipped only with benches and some simple pull up bars, but there was no proper roofing (only a small partial cover). The surface of the walking yard was cracked. The yard was surrounded by a concrete wall over which a metal mesh was stretched, which made the area look like a cage. During the walk, the prisoners did not perform any physical exercises or use the pull up bars. There were two outdoor gym stations within the premises of the facility. However, they were not available to all inmates on daily basis. The renovation plan to be implemented by 2022 provides for the adjustment of the walking yard for team games, according to the guidelines of the Director General of the Prison Service161. The remand prison Warszawa-Służewiec has implemented the recommendation in part. The walking yards were partially roofed. However, they resembled cages and were very small (the smallest one had only 20.1 m2 and, as the visiting team found, there had been situations where as many as 12 prisoners were taking a walk there). The yards were covered with a metal mesh on top. Their only piece of equipment was a small wooden bench. Access to General Practitioners During the CPT visit to the remand prison Warszawa-Białołęka in 2017, health care was provided to the inmates by 3 general practitioners employed full time. At the remand prison WarszawaSłużewiec, health care was provided to the inmates by one general practitioner employed full time. The CPT delegation members were informed by inmates in both facilities that the waiting times for medical consultations were very long. In the opinion of the CPT, there was a need to increase the employment of general practitioners at the Warszawa-Białołęka facility up to 5 full-time doctors, and at the Warszawa-Służewiec facility up to three full-time jobs162. Both establishments failed to implement the recommendation. The NMPT delegation received information that despite the increased employment of doctors, the availability of medical care for inmates had not improved. Inmates continued to report that the time of waiting for an appointment with a general practitioner was very long, sometimes several days. 160 Ibid., para. 74. 161 See: Guideline no. 2/2013 of 4.06.2013 162 CPT report on the visit to Poland, CPT/Inf (2018) 39, points 75 and 76, and footnotes no. 66 and 68. 69
