Recommendation (m) stated: Existing institutions be refurbished to meet basic minimum standards; 264. According to non-governmental sources, some refurbishment of operating establishments has been done in the Rustavi Prison No. 2 and Tbilisi Prison No. 7, but only on one of the floors so that most detainees in the latter facility continue to live in overcrowded, filthy cells with no natural light and very poor ventilation. In most existing establishments (except Rustavi No. 6, Kutaisi No. 2, the juvenile’s educational establishment and the women’s colony) the conditions are unsatisfactory and require urgent improvement and very little has been done so far. Given the steady rise in prisoners and the fact that new institutions will take a long time until they can replace existing ones, small attempts to patch buildings up (as e.g. in Batumi), do not lead to any lasting improvement. Punishment cells, which have repeatedly been cited as inhuman and degrading, have not been refurbished. Non-governmental organisations were unable to obtain carefully staged and prioritised plans for refurbishment and construction, despite requests and offers to assist in making those. 265. The Government informed that, with respect to particular institutions, it should be noted that the prison facilities have and are currently undergoing substantial reconstruction. For example, the Rustavi Prison No. 2 was fully renovated. Currently only one part of the prison, designated for 1000 inmates, is operating and the second part will start to operate in the nearest future. It is true that only the third floor of the Tbilisi Prison No. 7 was refurbished, however the conditions in this prison are normal and there is no overcrowding. 266. Apart from this non-exhaustive list of the activities in recent periods ,should be mentioned: • The roof of the dining hall of the Rustavi Prison No.1 has been refurbished. It is also planned to refurbish all the buildings of the prison. • The metal shutters of the cell windows has been removed in Tbilisi Prison No.1, Tbilisi Prison No.5, Zugdidi Prison No.4, Batumi Prison No.3. • The roof of the kitchen, the medical room and the appointment rooms have been refurbished in Tbilisi Prison No.1. • The showers and kitchen in Tbilisi Prison No.7 has been refurbished. Additionally a new ventilation system has been installed. • A small football pitch has been built in Avchala Prison for Juveniles. Additionally the roof of the institution as well as the class rooms have been refurbished. • The punishment cells in Ksani Prison No.8 were refurbished in 2005; Currently the works on water and energy supply systems are underway. • The Tbilisi Prison for Women and Juveniles was refurbished in March 2005. In November 2006 the punishment cells and water supply systems were refurbished. • The works on the refurbishment of the punishment cell in the Medical Institution for Tuberculosis are underway. The roof of the Institution as well as the water supply systems underwent refurbishment.
