📋 Tender Overview
One of the four main goals of the Ministry of Justice is to reduce the number of relapses. This is the most difficult goal and it will take the most effort. The ways of its implementation were announced by the Minister of Justice Denis Malyuska during the presentation of the Ministry of Justices To do list.He noted that many problems had accumulated in the penitentiary system those in prison were not preparing to return to society at all. In addition corruption is a huge problem in the system.In particular it is procurement corruption. What is needed is not purchased and what is not needed is purchased with huge volumes and at inflated prices the Minister stated noting that this issue is currently under the close control of the Ministrys leadership.Another problem is the uncontrolled nature of individual institutions and the existence of a sustainable subculture. According to Denis Malyusky there are a number of institutions that do not control their prisoners.In order to have an idea of what is going on in the establishments - who is located where they are being moved and what will happen to that person further - the convicted persons will be kept on record.In the few months that we have been working we have developed software that will allow the convicts to be recorded. In addition this software will allow you to have information about all the risks associated with a particular person said the Minister of Justice.Separately he stressed the steps that are planned to be taken to improve the situation in the penitentiary sector. This includes creating the proper conditions for the detention of prisoners in prison and expanding the list of non-custodial sentences the creation of modern prisons respect for human rights and the initiation of private detention facilities.We plan to try to make it possible to work in a private detention center. In essence it will be something like a well-guarded hotel where people who have the means can stay and await sentencing. At the expense of these funds we will partly be able to cover the costs and the stay of persons who will be in ordinary detention facilities. Lets try to do this on at least one pilot project and see how this business model works and in the future we will try to extend this experiment if successful to the whole territory of Ukraine. It will take a little bit of legislation to change it but it is also in our first priority plans - said Denis Malyuska.In addition he focused on three other important goals - the access of prisoners to education and correctional programs increased funding for medicine nutrition and lifestyle and increased workers wages.Unfortunately in todays budget we have not been able to obtain an increase in the funding of the penitentiary system so the only way to achieve these goals would be to close prisons and reduce staffing levels where prisons are not filled. It will be difficult it will be difficult it will take a lot of resources but we have no other way out said the head of the department.
