"We are aware that the rehabilitation of prisoners into society is an essential task of the state, and that the better guarantees of these prisoners’ dignity were, the more effective such rehabilitation would be, whether these guarantees relate to training, or to their very hygiene, health and safety conditions.
We believe that guaranteeing these conditions is essential to people’s reintegration with society, and we would draw attention to the fact, not mentioned in the report, that only public administration of the prison network can guarantee this, as opposed to private management which, as is clearly shown in the cases of, for example, the United States and Israel, puts profit, and even politics, above the interests of the people.
The Green Paper on the application of EU criminal justice legislation in the field of detention, drafted by the Commission in June, paints an alarming picture of prison overcrowding, increased numbers of foreign nationals being held, large numbers of pre-trial detainees, detainees with mental and psychological disorders, and numbers of deaths and suicides. However, prison conditions should be consistent with human dignity, and the rights of suspected or accused persons must be guaranteed as well as the right not to be subjected to inhumane or degrading treatment."@en1
