different themes, the TV room was only for watching television... There were a few books scattered on the veranda, but not highlighted enough to tempt the youth into reading. Madam, I fully agree with your report on the lack of repairs in this institution, as well as the refurbishment, which needs to be done urgently! This does not encourage many children to “settle down” in this living quarter. I fully agree with you Madam, when you describe the lack of renovation throughout the ground floor in your report. It seems to me that the observations that you made at the end of your report are still to be taken into consideration, since as far as I am concerned, I did not notice any renovation being executed. I think that there is an evident lack of hygiene and security for the eleven imprisoned young adolescents. For example, I did not see any smoke detectors or even an emergency exit on the floor. I am concerned about the well-being of my son, since he has only just integrated in this CEF and must remain there for six months... On your site, you also published a letter from the Keeper of the Seals, stating that she is following up on the observations in your report that you sent to her, and among other things, she states that the renovation works on the ground floor as well as the electricity should start in 2015. As I already stated, I did not observe any renovated facilities and no one present on the day of the visit spoke on this subject. Would it be possible for you to act personally to ensure that these works are executed? Or, failing that, collect information on them? Madam, as a parent of one of these youth deprived of liberty, I cannot emphasise enough on how much security and well-being must be a priority for not only these young boys and girls, but also for the staff working there. I hope that you can provide a rapid solution to this subject. Thanking you in anticipation. Yours sincerely.” 114
