CAT/OP/NZL/1/Add.1 Burnham Camp, Camp cells 123. The Subcommittee recommended that deficiencies in sanitary infrastructures be remedied, giving due consideration to international standards. A project is underway to provide toilets and basins for the Burnham Cells in order to align with international standards. The project has an expected completion date of 31 May 2015. F. Centre for accommodation of refugees and asylum seekers Mangere Refugee Resettlement Centre 124. The Subcommittee recommended New Zealand expedites rebuilding the Mangere refugee centre and improve record keeping at the centre. As part of Budget 2013, the New Zealand Government committed $5.5 million of operating expenditure over the next four years towards the cost of the rebuild of the Mangere Refugee Resettlement Centre (MRRC). A project team to oversee the rebuild has been established. A concept design to indicate requirements for MRRC has been developed. Expressions of Interest (EOI) from parties wishing to engage in the rebuild were released on the Government Electronic Tenders Service website in March 2014. The Requests for Proposal is expected to be released in May 2014 to short-listed EOI respondents. The rebuild of the MRRC is anticipated to be substantially completed by the end of 2015. 125. The record keeping at the Mangere Refugee Resettlement Centre follows audit record keeping processes, which allows for efficient and consistent retrieval of information when required. All financial records (including general financial administration and financial records pertaining to the payment of allowances to individual asylum seekers) are held in centralised hard copy record keeping folders and electronically in secure folders. Individual hard copy client files are also maintained and contain documentation relating to day-to-day activities individuals undertake, such as leave requests, appointments, warrant of commitments etc. As a result of the Subcommittee’s recommendation, copies of individuals’ financial records will also be held in their individual hard copy client file. Transportation of detainees 126. The Subcommittee recommended that New Zealand assess the conditions of transportation of prisoners to ensure they are not subject to the unnecessary physical hardship or restraint, and that decisions regarding the use of restraints are made on the basis of individualised assessments. 127. Corrections are reviewing all aspects of how it transports prisoners, so that it maintains public safety while ensuring that prisoners are transported safely and humanely. This review will build on the existing practices that addressed recommendations from the Ombudsman following his report on the death of Liam Ashley, a young prisoner, in transit in 2007. These practices include the use of waist restraints and single cell compartments. Transporting multiple prisoners together in vehicles poses an increased risk of prisoner-onprisoner violence, escape (when prisoners are unloaded from vehicles) and assaults on staff, and restraints are considered a necessary safety precaution. 128. The Ministry of Health has published guidelines for forensic services on the transportation of special patients, and has recommended these guidelines to other mental health services. 129. Police policy requires that a risk assessment is undertaken for each prisoner prior to transportation (either by road or air). Factors such as necessity for restraint, type of restraint, type of vehicle and mode of transit are considered. Police do not have a routine practice of using mechanical restraints during conveyance. 21
