Expenditure connected with travel and missions came to €194,813. The first missions of accompaniment of foreigners escorted back to their countries of origin were conducted in the final quarter of 2014. These sensitive missions are rather complex from a logistical point of view. They are organised in collaboration with the services of the travel agent holding the contract mutualised by the management departments of the administrative and financial departments of the Prime Minister’s Office. Indeed, the tickets are reserved at the last moment on the basis of routings received from the Ministry of the Interior. These missions are often cancelled at the last moment and can therefore lead to expenses (partial reimbursement of tickets and part payments required by foreign hotels). Within the ordinary expenditure, it would be appropriate to explain certain initiatives which are emblematic in terms of both communication and the possibility of access to the Contrôle Général for foreigners. In communication terms, a booklet was produced in partnership with the Association for the Prevention of Torture. It brings together the whole of the opinions and recommendations published during the first Contrôleur Général’s term of office. It has been translated into English and Spanish, in order to enable wide dissemination at the international level. Its financing was taken care of by the APT (€2,065) and the Contrôle Général (€6,298.33). Since 2014 specific expenditure (€10,244) has been undertaken to ensure the accessibility of the Contrôleur général des lieux de liberté to non-French-speaking persons deprived of liberty. Letters written by these persons in their mother tongue are thus translated. Responses sent back to them are accompanied with a translation. The time necessary for the latter should not lead to any increase of the response waiting time. Apart from these ordinary costs, it is to be emphasised that 66% of the funds provided for entertainment allowances (€14,000) were consumed. The end of the Contrôleur Général’s term of office was also an occasion for the holding of receptions with the partner institutions and associations as a whole. This expenditure also includes the costs for welcoming foreign guests within the framework of exchanges (Honduras, Morocco) as well as the organisation of the annual seminar in September, for which the regional department for youth and sports (Direction régionale de la jeunesse et des sports) placed its meeting rooms in the 13th arrondissement of Paris at the Contrôle Général’s disposal free of charge. 80
