-5Copy of the letter transmitting the CPT'S report Strasbourg, 20 December 1993 Dear Sirs, In pursuance of Article 10, paragraph 1, of the European Convention for the prevention of torture and inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, I have the honour to enclose herewith the report to the Government of Greece drawn up by the European Committee for the prevention of torture and inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment (CPT) after its visit to Greece from 14 to 26 March 1993. The report was adopted by the CPT at its nineteenth meeting, held from 29 November to 3 December 1993. I would draw your attention in particular to paragraph 287 of the report, in which the CPT requests the Greek authorities to provide an interim and a follow-up report on action taken upon its report. The CPT would be grateful if it were possible, in the event of the reports forwarded being in Greek, for them to be accompanied by an English or French translation. More generally, the CPT is keen to establish an ongoing dialogue with the Greek authorities on matters of mutual interest, in the spirit of the principle of co-operation set out in Article 3 of the Convention. Consequently, any other communication that the Greek authorities might wish to make would also be most welcome. I am at your entire disposal if you have any questions concerning either the CPT's report or the future procedure. Finally, I would be grateful if you could acknowledge receipt of this letter. Yours faithfully, Claude NICOLAY President of the European Committee for the prevention of torture and inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment Ministry of Justice Directorate for Drafting Legal Texts Specific Legal Affairs and International Relations 96, rue Messoghion GR - 115 27 ATHENS
