Further, the Subcommittee recommends that the State party improve its training of medical personnel working in places of detention, particularly as regards international standards, including the Istanbul Protocol which is an indispensable tool in detecting, documenting, reporting and as such deterring torture and ill-treatment. 64. Regarding recommendations 90., 91. and 92., the parameters concerning the admission of newly arrived inmates are duly reflected on the Health Care Procedures Handbook approved on the 5 June 2009 and on the CEPMPL. Hence, those recommendations are followed by the DGRSP. 65.

The inmate's medical appointment shall be made within 72 hours of the prisoner's entry into the prison, except in emergency situations. It should be reiterated that these procedures are followed in all prison establishments. 66.

The Subcommittee recommends that the State party improve the access of inmates to medical care, including specialized medical care, through better coordination with the aim of reducing waiting time for medical assistance to persons deprived of liberty. 70. Access of inmates to medical care is a main concern. Hence, the importance of Order No. 10091/2013, of 1st of August, which created, within the DGRSP, the "Competence Centre for Health Care Management", with responsibilities within the prisons’ health sector. This Centre integrates health technicians of the DGRSP and has led to a greater control and supervision of the clinical staff of private undertakings that work in prison establishments. 71. Regarding the excessive clinical staff turnover and the poor attendance of clinical personnel, as a strategic decision, it was determined to recruit civil servants, so that in internal mobility, they could take on functions in several prison establishments (ongoing implementation) in order to gradually reduce costs with human resources of private companies, thus stabilizing the excessive turnover, and significantly reduce dependence of private companies. 72. Thus, in 2017 recruitments procedures were initiated in order to recruit 45 nurses and 17 physicians. Additionally, in 2018, under the Programme of Extraordinary Regularisation of Precarious Working Contracts, 11 recruitment procedures were opened in the health sector and 55 contracts were thus regularised. 9
