We proposed that PS Ptuj add or increase the number of lockers for storing seized items in the room for receiving detainees, or to suitably mark the existing lockers so that two peoples’ items can be stored in one locker (e.g. 6/1 and 6/2). The MNZ replied that lockers had been marked accordingly. We again proposed that PS Škofja Loka examine the possibility of arranging a suitable space/cabinet in the room for receiving detainees or nearby, where all temporarily seized items which a detained person may not keep in their possession during detention would be stored in one place. The MNZ replied that PS would examine the possibility of providing a cabinet for storing seized items. Vehicles for transporting detained persons We proposed that PS Kranjska Gora regularly clean the inside of the vehicle for transporting detainees. The MNZ replied that PS would regularly clean the inside of the said vehicle. We proposed that PS Ljubljana Vič regularly clean the inside of the vehicle for transporting detainees. The MNZ replied that police officers had cleaned the vehicle immediately and had been warned about regularly cleaning it. We proposed that PS Ravne na Koroškem eliminate the deficiency in the vehicle for transporting detainees as soon as possible. The MNZ replied that the deficiency had been eliminated. Recreation areas The recreation area at PS Brežice is partly covered by a roof and is not under full video surveillance. When inspecting the recreation area, we discovered that our proposal from the previous visit had not been realised and an ashtray had not been installed at the site; we thus again proposed its installation. The MNZ replied that the expert service of Novo Mesto Police Directorate would examine the possibility of installing a suitable ashtray in the recreation area. We proposed that PS Gorišnica examine the possibility of installing a suitable ashtray in the recreation area. The MNZ replied that the proposal would be considered and the ashtray would comply with safety standards. We proposed that PS Ormož examine the possibility of installing a suitable ashtray in the recreation area. The MNZ replied that after discussions with the expert service, the station would try to install an ashtray which would comply with safety standards which would be installed in the recreation area. We proposed that PS Ptuj examine the possibility of installing a protective fence in the recreation area, and that the management of the station be informed of the need to regularly clean the recreation area.
