employed under labour contracts – two. Present is a more serious shortage of employees from the supervisory-security sphere. Of all eighteen vacancies, their number totals twelve. 1.7. In 2015 NPM established that the main problems for the prison administration continue being related to the lack of financing, which leads to constant delays in paying the utility bills and the impossibility to perform the necessary repairs and to purchase equipment. The unpaid debt to suppliers for 2013 amounted to forty thousand nine hundred and seventy levs. After significant efforts on behalf of MoJ by 15.12.2014 all debts to the suppliers were paid. No measures were undertaken due to the lack of financing. Only in respect to the findings of NPM about the car park of the prison, after a procedure under the Public Procurement Act opened in DGEP, two automobiles were provided. THE PRISON IN THE CITY OF PLOVDIV 1.1. The capacity of the prison and the two prison hostels (“Hebros” and “Smolyan”) with four sq. m. of residential area per DLP is seven hundred ninety-nine places. The housing building of the prison is with a capacity of five hundred and five places when meeting the requirement of four sq. m. of area. At the end of 2010 in the prison and its hostels were accommodated eight hundred sixty-five DLP, in 2011 – seven hundred seventy-four DLP, in 2012 (as of the day of NPM inspection) – seven hundred and four DLP, in 2013 – five hundred ninety-five DLP (as of 06.12.2013), in 2014 – six hundred fifty-four DLP, in 2015 – six hundred and three (as of 09.03.2015). There is a tendency of a decrease in the number of DLP. Heating in the prison is good. Restrooms are constructed in all sleeping premises, except in the disciplinary cells. The woodwork of the windows in the two housing blocks is replaced. There were regular activities to combat cockroaches, which are insufficiently efficient. There is access to a bathroom twice a week but there is no hot water to make one’s morning toilet. 1.2. Food is cooked in the building of the prison in the city of Plovdiv and is delivered to the remand center and “Hebros” hostel. In several consecutive reports NPM establishes that the kitchen has old and energy-consuming equipment. In 2015 the necessary financing is already envisaged to replace the kitchen equipment and repair the kitchen premises. 1.3. In 2015 (as of the day of the inspection) from the prison building the working DLP in SEPP workshops were one hundred and five, forty-five of whom were DLP employed as housekeeping staff, twenty DLP – auxiliary staff at the workshops. From PH “Hebros”, where sixty-nine PLD were accommodated, forty DLP were employed, twenty-five DLP of whom at external sites. Volunteer work for DLP consists of cleaning and participation in the repairs of the shared areas of the different groups. NPM believes that the employment provided is insufficient. 1.4. The prison building has a HC, where fifty-sixty DLP daily undergo pre-scheduled examination or in case of urgent health complaints. A survey is done with the newly accommodated DLP for the risk of tuberculosis. As per the envisaged staff numbers in the personnel schedule of the prison the medical staff consists of: director of the HC; dentist; intern – doctor and feldsher. As medical orderlies in the HC are employed people deprived of their liberty. Visits in the dispensary until 16.12.2013 were thirteen thousand four hundred and twelve, four hundred eighty-one of which were prophylactic and one thousand five hundred fortynine were psychiatric. NPM considers it a good practice to invite consulting experts to examine DLP at the HC. Of these more often come: dermatologist-venereologist; cardiologist; surgeon; neurologist; ophthalmologist, as well as a clinical laboratory assistant. For 2014 there is one suicidal attempt registered and one deceased DLP. The deceased was on a regular home leave outside the territory of the prison. 31
