The case-files newly opened in 2017 primarily concerned access to healthcare, as far as penal
institutions are concerned; for administrative detention, they concerned dignity and access to
healthcare; for health institutions, they concerned freedom of movement; and for custody facilities,
they concerned physical integrity.
The six main fundamental rights on which the newly opened inquiries focused this year are
the same as in 2016: access to health care, physical integrity, dignity, maintaining family ties, access to
activities and work and, more than in 2016, moral integrity.
4.2.3 Verification findings at the closing of the case-file
For the third year in a row, the CGLPL is able to give indications on the findings of the verifications
carried out with the authorities with which cases are taken up. In order to report these findings, a
distinction has been drawn between any violations of fundamental rights, the results obtained for the
person concerned and action taken as regards the authorities.
The data below shows that a violation has been proven (even partially) in 51.55% of case-files
(versus 57.07% over the first eleven months of 2016).
