- 35 70. A general problem in the special facilities for irregular migrants and the police holding facilities visited were the difficulties experienced by detainees in keeping themselves clean, due to the insufficient quantities of detergents and products for personal hygiene. In some facilities, small quantities of soap and washing powder and sometimes shampoo would be issued to detained persons, in others only soap. Similarly, toilet paper was not issued on a systematic basis. Other hygienic items, such as toothbrushes and toothpaste had to be acquired by the detained persons themselves. Shaving kits were generally not allowed, and if these could be obtained from staff, they had to be shared with many others. In view of the already precarious medical condition of many of the persons concerned, the CPT reiterates the necessity for the Greek authorities to consider (personal) hygiene as a matter of priority. 71. With respect to the facilities visited, the CPT calls upon the Greek authorities to ensure that: - occupancy rates are respected, and if necessary revised, so as to offer a minimum of 4m² of space per detainee in multi-occupancy accommodation; - all detainees are offered a bed or plinth, bedding and mattress, all clean; - all detainees have ready access to toilet facilities, including at night; - all detainees are offered at least one hour of outdoor exercise a day; - regular maintenance work and disinfection is carried out and sufficient funding is made available to this end; - sufficient quantities of detergent and products for personal hygiene are made available at all times to detainees. The CPT would also like to receive confirmation that the Piraeus centre has been definitely closed, as well as details on the capacity and layout of the facilities replacing both the Pagani and Piraeus centres. iii. regime 72. More than four years after the adoption of the 2005 Aliens Act, there is still no special regulation in place detailing the minimum operating standards for special facilities for irregular migrants as required by Article 81.57 Consequently, these facilities continue to be run like large police stations, and detainees are not offered any activities. In the facilities visited in 2009, the CPT’s delegation observed that detainees spent their time either sleeping or in a state of idleness; they did not even have access to reading material, board games, radio or television. 57 See CPT/ Inf (2009) 20, paragraph 45.
