We also proposed that PS Bled examine the possibility of arranging the room for receiving and interviewing detainees and their conversations with lawyers within the framework of renovation works, i.e. according to the MNZ plan for arranging detention rooms in the 2010–2015 period. The MNZ replied that the proposal would be observed at the time of possible renovation in future budget periods. During the visit to PS Brežice, we proposed that a printed copy of the list of lawyers equipped with the printout date be placed in the room for receiving detainees, and that PS examine the possibility of installing a telephone in the room for receiving detainees. The MNZ replied that PS printed a new and updated list of lawyers and placed it in the room for receiving detainees; the expert service of Novo mesto Police Directorate would examine the possibility of installing a telephone in the room for receiving detainees and ensure the repair of the button on the communication device in the relevant room. We also proposed that PS Brežice repair the damaged button on the communication device in the room for discussions with lawyers and that the communication device be equipped with a suitable sticker. The MNZ responded that the communication device in the room for processing aliens had been repaired and the noise from the device eliminated. We proposed that PS Domžale place an updated list of lawyers in at least one of the rooms (no. 25 or no. 26) used for receiving and interviewing of detainees. The MNZ replied that an updated list of lawyers had immediately been placed in the interview room where detainees are received. If, due to the occupancy of this room, a detainee happened to be waiting in reception rooms no. 25 or no. 26, the relevant lists would also be placed in these rooms. When visiting PS Dravograd, we again discovered that the PS was not regularly updating the list of lawyers, since a list dated 13 August 2015 was found. We thus proposed that officers update the list and regularly update it. The MNZ responded that an updated list of lawyers had been printed immediately after the visit, and the commander had appointed an officer responsible for printing an updated list every three months. We informed PS Idrija that the list of lawyers must be updated regularly, and we proposed that all police units be warned again about the need to regularly update the list of lawyers so that it is obvious that the revised list had been verified, the name of the person verifying the revised list and the date of verification. The MNZ replied that officers at this PS had replaced the old list of lawyers with an updated one. The management of PS would ensure that a new updated list would be printed for the unit every three months, which would also indicate when it had been printed. We proposed that PS Laško place the list of lawyers in the interview room used for the reception, discussions and interviews of detainees and their conversations with lawyers. The MNZ replied that the list of lawyers had been replaced with a new one. We proposed that PS Novo mesto place the list of lawyers (with suitable printout date) in the room for receiving detainees. The MNZ responded that the list of lawyers with the new printout date had been placed in the relevant room.
