30 MONITORING OF CUSTODIAL SETTINGS IN UKRAINE: It is worth noting that the total count of individuals moved by special transport means exceeds 900,000 million but this number includes the same individuals who in the course of the year were transported several times and by different transport means. Therefore, delivery of one person from a remand prison to court and back counts as two, and throughout the year the court may sit in such person’s case for a number of times. In view of these aspects it was counted that in the course of the reporting year the above mentioned special transport means were used to move • • 142,007 persons taken into pre-trial custody and convicted – by 29 ST rail carriages; 516,377 persons taken into pre-trial custody and convicted – by 426 special vehicles of MIA (total availability – 726 vehicles), and 282,326 persons taken into pre-trial custody and convicted – by 219 special vehicles of the MIA Internal Troops. It should also be noted that 302 (41 %) of 726 MIA special vehicles are to be written off due to unsuitability for operation (at present these vehicles are factually out of use). • At present MIA authorities operate only 426 special vehicles, which is 47 % of what they should be in possession of (the scheduled number of such vehicles is 891). Over 2013 NPM Department staff together with members of the public visited 96 authorities and units subordinated to MIA: 53 city, district and line authorities, 30 temporary holding facilities, 2 special reception centers, 2 reception centers for minors and 9 special vehicles.
