Review of the standard minimum rules for the treatment of prisoners 2013, para. 36
- Paragraph text
- In the light of this interpretation, the Rules should incorporate a provision urging authorities to adopt specific measures aimed at resolving the structural shortcomings of places of deprivation of liberty and earmark the resources necessary to cover basic needs and work and educational programmes. Furthermore, the Rules should set out concrete measures to be taken to ensure minimum guarantees of humane treatment for persons in custodial care, including securing a prompt and effective judicial control of detention; providing adequate, accessible and appropriate health care; ensuring the availability of appropriate judicial resources and effective complaint systems; and allowing contact with the outside world and access to other activities, including for those awaiting trial.
