- 44 The CPT would like to receive more specific information about the current operational
capacity at Fylakio RIC and the daily occupancy levels for the months of July and August
2018.
In the light of the above, the CPT recommends that the Greek authorities take
immediate steps at Fylakio RIC to ensure that:
-
-
-
the financial and staffing resources of the centre are substantially increased, such that
all those persons who are required to undergo the reception and identification
procedure can be accommodated and processed in a timely manner, without being
previously placed in detention for weeks or months on end;
vulnerable persons (e.g. families with children, pregnant women, etc.) are immediately
transferred to open reception facilities where they can receive appropriate care and
support for their specific needs, which also implies that the number of places in these
facilities should be increased. As regards unaccompanied children, reference is made to
the CPT’s recommendation in paragraph 128;
the centre is regularly maintained and refurbished. To this end, sufficient funding
should be made available in a swift manner;
all detainees are provided with sufficient hygiene products and appropriate clothing,
according to their needs.

New arrivals were mainly placed according to nationalities and available space, which
resulted in some families with children, and particularly girls, women, and unaccompanied children
being held together in a section with unrelated boys or men, with whom they had to share toilets
and sanitary facilities. This presented an increased risk for their safety and security, exposing them
to a risk of sexual and gender based violence, and should immediately be stopped.
The CPT recommends that the Greek authorities take immediate steps to ensure that
women and children are never detained in the same wing as unrelated men.
99.
As regards regime, with the exception of the provision of language courses, no recreational
or other organised activities were provided in the RIC in Fylakio. This was justified by the
transitional character of the RIC. However, given the fact that all foreign nationals could be
detained for up to 25 days and longer at the centre, the activities on offer were clearly insufficient.
The CPT recommends that a programme of activities (educational, recreational and
sports) is developed for persons detained longer than a few days.
