Establish an independent detention monitoring mechanism, that is both well-funded and free from government influence and has the direct involvement of civil society organisations, with the mandate to independently investigate allegations of human rights violations, and publish regular findings in full for public access. The mechanism should prioritise transparent reporting and follow up, through an anonymous complaints procedure and the possibility for unannounced visits. Guarantee NGOs and civil society organisations open access to detention centres, including PRDC's, with the possibility to provide medical care and distribute food and non-food items inside. Ensure adequate and timely access to health care for people on the move in detention, including psychological health care and effective translation services. Establish medical assessments for all people on the move prior to arrival in detention centres by medical actors to assess their vulnerability to detention measures with the possibility to reassess alternative measures. Implement a timetable of regular recreational activities for people on the move in detention for longer than a few days, including educational classes, sport activities as well as access to a library, place of worship, and outdoor space that complies with European and international law. Ensure that people on the move in detention have regular and free access to hygiene items and cleaning products, and guarantee that detention facilities, including all furniture, bedding and mattresses, are in a condition that ensures alignment with the standards required for dignified living and international human rights. Recommendations to the EU Commission: To commence the non-disbursement of funds to the Greek state until an independent inquiry establishes that detention practices are in accordance with the European Charter of Fundamental Rights, and that detention is being used solely as a last resort in migration-related cases. To open infringement procedures against Greece on the basis of the incorrect transposition of the EU Return Directive into Greek law, particularly the systematic detention of third country nationals in view of removal. By independent inquiry we refer to a process that is transparent, whereby the actors leading the investigation are separated from state actors, civil society organisations also have the opportunity to give input, and the methodology, procedures and findings are made publicly available in full. Abolish the use of detention for asylum applicants on grounds of public order and national security to avoid their arbitrary detention. 73
