Survey Background
0.1 General overview
TheSPACEI2013annualreportispartoftheSPACEproject2.Thisprojectproducesannualoverviewon
mainindicatorsofcustodialandnon‐custodialactivitiesinallMemberStatesoftheCouncilofEurope.
The first part of the project(SPACEI) provides data on the populations held in custody and/or inother
types of penal institutions across Europe. Moreover, this report contains useful information about the
conditions of detention (e.g. capacity, expenses, staff), as well as about the custodial movement (e.g.
entries,releases,deaths,escapes).
The second part of the project (SPACE II), focuses on persons serving non‐custodial sanctions and
measures. A separate report3is produced on these categories of penal populations supervised in
community.
Both reports have the common goal of ensuring as much as possible the collection, analyses and
interpretationofreliabledatathroughacommonmethodology.Inparticular,thequestionnairesusedfor
the collection of the data were designed to allow the maximum comparability between Prison
administrationsandProbationagencies,aswellasamongMemberStatesoftheCouncilofEurope(CoE).
For writing this report, national raw data and comments were collected by means of the standard
questionnaire,whichwasansweredbycorrespondentsineachCoEMemberState.Generally,thenational

Since 2004, the SPACE questionnaires are regularly improved on the basis of previous experiences and
accordingtotheassessmentsmadebyexternalpeerreviewersandCoErecommendations.SPACEI2013

Strasbourg, 15 December 2014, pc‐cp\space\documents\pc‐cp (2014) 11 PC‐CP (2014) 11 Council of Europe Annual Penal Statistics applied for producing prison statistics. The answers to these questions –presented mainly in Table1.1–
suggest that cross‐national comparisons of prison populations must be conducted cautiously as the
categories included in the total number of inmates vary from country to country. The same is true for
comparisons of prison mortality (see Table13.1&13.3) and, more specifically, of suicides occurred in
penalinstitutions(seeTable13.2).
ANNUALMODULE
Sincetheconceptualisationofthecategoriesinnationalstatisticsiscrucialforcross‐
national comparisons, the SPACEI2013 survey carry on the collection of additional
information through Annual Modules. These modules correspond to topical issues
approvedtobeansweredbyamajorityofnationalcorrespondents.
This year, the Annual Module examines the topic of foreign inmates held in penal institutions across
Europe. Given the increasing interest on these populations mainly in Northern, Western and Southern
Europeancountries,theneedofanalysingthepeculiaritiesofthesepopulationswasclearlyidentifiedasa
priority for SPACE annual module. As far as the main questionnaire is concerned, the comparability
throughtheAnnualModulewasensuredbyapplyingthesamecategoriestothequestionsofdetail(e.g.
typeofoffences,breakdownbylegalstatusincustody,categoriesofentriesandreleases,breakdownby
age). The data collected by means of the special questionnaire answered by Prison Administrations are
presentedinthePartDofthepresentreport.

Strasbourg, 15 December 2014, pc‐cp\space\documents\pc‐cp (2014) 11 PC‐CP (2014) 11 Council of Europe Annual Penal Statistics 9 0.3 Main modifications made in the latest SPACE I
surveys (2008-13)
Prison population
•New item on private facilities was added in the SPACE I 2011 questionnaire.
•An item has been added in order to measure the number of persons under security measures and those serving
preventive detention for dangerous offenders (SPACE I 2011).
•Regarding the legal status of prisoners, two additional subcategories have been included: persons detained
because of the revocation, suspension or annulment of the conditional release or probation and persons detained
as a consequence of the conversion of a fine (fine defaulters). This item was first used in the SPACE I 2009.
•The following categories of offences have been added in the SPACE I 2009 questionnaire: economic and
financial offences, terrorism and organised crime.
•Under the category of juvenile offenders held in special institutions, an additional item (introduced in the
SPACE I 2009) allows getting information on the number of the persons aged 18 and over.
• Until SPACE I 2009, only general questions on foreign inmates were asked. In the SPACE I 2010, an item on
foreign prisoners who are citizens of Member States of the European Union has been added.
•An item on the number of juvenile foreign inmates (aged less than 18) was added since SPACE I 2012.
•Since the SPACE I 2010, the questionnaire allows a distinction between male and female mortality in custody.
Conditions & Metadata
•Regarding the category of institutions foreseen for detention before trial, in the SPACE I 2013 the more
extensive definition was set up allowing a more reliable understanding of investigative institutions before trial.
•Since the SPACE I 2010 and revised in 2011, a new breakdown by categories was designed for the capacity of
penal institutions. More reliable information has been collected on institutions for pre‐trial detention, places
for persons serving custodial sentences and for juvenile offenders, and places in other types of institutions for
the detention of inmates.
•In former SPACE questionnaires ‐before the SPACE I 2008‐ there was a slight difference between the French
and the English definitions of assault and battery. While the English version referred to assault, the French
version referred to assault and battery (coups et blessures volontaires). This problem has been solved and both
versions refer now to assault and battery.
•Former SPACE questionnaires ‐before the SPACE I 2008‐ referred to rape, but an analysis of the answers
received suggested that some countries were including other sexual offences under that heading. As a
consequence, sexual offences have been divided in two categories: rape and other types of sexual offences.
•In order to avoid as far as possible the misinterpretation of the figures, special attention has been given to the
codes used to answer the questions when no data were available (i.e. NA, NAP).
Custodial events
•Since the SPACE I 2011 and 2012, the former item on the number of deaths was slightly improved: specific
categories on the causes of death have been used (homicides, accidents, drug/alcohol intoxications, suicides,
other causes).
•In the questionnaires SPACE I 2010, 2011 and 2012, some clarifications were introduced in the definitions of
other items, such as the counting units used in each country and the date of reference for the information.
•Since the SPACE I 2008, the category of entries to penal institutions has been completed with several follow up
questions in order to distinguish transfers from the rest of the entries. In the SPACE I 2010, this item was fully
revised and allows taking into account international tranfers.
•In the SPACE I 2010, an item with 5 sub‐categories has been designed in order to collect information on
releases from penal institutions (including conditional releases and external placements).
Prison policies
•The item foreseen for the information on the changes in national prison policies and on the events that may
have had an influence on the number of inmates was divided in several categories and allows a more reliable
comparison among countries (since the SPACE I 2008 questionnaire).
•Since the SPACE I 2010, special attention was given to the issue of the age of criminal responsibility and the
minimal age for the application of custodial sanctions and measures.
Sincethe2008survey,thequestionnaireistranslatedintoRussianlanguage.Theaimofthetranslationis
to facilitate the data collection in certain countries and to allow the inclusion of comments on the
particularities of the national data. This version, used relatively sporadically, increased the number of
responsesreceivedfromMemberStatesandimprovedthereliabilityoftheprovidedinformation.

INBRIEF…
The present report includes global indicators of the prison populations on 1st
September2013(PartA)aswellasdataontheflowofentries,flowofreleases,length
ofimprisonment,escapesanddeathsincustodyforthewholeyear2012(PartB).One
chapter (PartC) deals with the personnel employed by the Prison Administrations
andthosewhoworkinsidepenalinstitutions.
In order to ensure as much as possible the comparability across countries, some figures are presented
only as the rawdata in the tables. Therefore, figures that did not seem to fit the definitions used in the
questionnairewerenotintegratedinthetableswithcalculationsofratesandpercentages.
A. Global Indicators of Prison Populations on 1st
September 2013
Thesituationofprisonpopulationsonagivendateoftheyear(stockstatistics)issetinTables1to7.3.
The number of inmates varies over time under the influence of the number of entries intoand releases
frompenalinstitutionsandthelengthofthestaysintheseinstitutions.
Table1:Situationofpenalinstitutionson1stSeptember2013
(1) Total number of inmates (including pre‐trial detainees). This indicator is commonly known as
prison stock. Usually, in the total number of inmates are included the standard categories of
inmates,suchaspersonsheldinsidepenalinstitutionsatagivendateand,morespecifically,pre‐
trialdetaineesandsentencedprisoners.Sometimescountriesincludeaswelljuvenileoffenders.
Nevertheless, it becomes common to observe inside prison stock the following categories:
persons under penal (therapeutic) measures, persons held in private facilities, or those held in
open penal institutions. Moreover, in prison stock may also be included inmates detained for

(h) Indicatorofaveragelengthofpre‐trialdetention(calculatedonthebasisofthesameformulaas
theindicatorunderheading(d)).
The figure under heading (a) corresponds to the total number of days spent in penal institutions by all
persons placed in detention for at least one day during the reference year (2012). This might be time
spent in pre‐trial detention or time spent servinga prison sentence, or might even correspondtoother
circumstances(detentionforfailuretopayafine,forinstance).Nodistinctionismadeherebetweenthose
categories.
By dividing the number of days of imprisonment by 365 (366 in leap years) we obtained the "average
number of prisoners intheyear" or the number of"prisoner‐years"(b), which constitutes probably the
bestpossibleindicatoroftheaveragenumberofprisonerspresentintheyear.

Strasbourg, 15 December 2014, pc‐cp\space\documents\pc‐cp (2014) 11 PC‐CP (2014) 11 Council of Europe Annual Penal Statistics D. Annual Module: Foreign inmates
Since SPACE I 2012, every year the SPACE I additional questionnaire examine a special aspect of the
custodialorganisationinordertogathermoredetailedinformationaboutit.
Thisyear,theannualmodulefocusesonthecategoryofforeigninmatesheldincustody.Themaingoalof
thisadditionalsurveyistobringlightonthecompositionofthepopulationofincarceratedforeigners.In
order to answer this main interrogation, three main orientations were privileged: legal status in the
country where the foreigners are incarcerated, judicial status in detention and the breakdown by
categories of offences. Moreover, we included several questions related to the movements (entries and
releases)oftheseinmatesduringthereferenceyear(2012).
Forty‐eight (92%) out of fifty‐two Prison Administrations answered the Annual
ModuleSPACEI2013onForeignInmates.
Four Prison Administrations did not answer this module of the survey: BH: Bosnia and Herzegovina
(Federation),Bulgaria,RussianFederation,andUkraine.
Oneshouldkeepinmindthatthephenomenonofoverrepresentationofforeignersincustodyisnotatall
problematicinEasternEuropeancountries.Therefore,wepresumethatsuchdetailedfiguresonforeign
inmatesarenotcollatedinnationalstatistics.
As far as the quality of the responses, it should be highlighted that the detailed answers on these
populationswerehardlyavailableinnationalstatistics.Therefore,thevalidationprocedureswerelimited
to the cross‐sectional comparisons and the verification of identical items in the main SPACE I
questionnaires(e.g.numberofforeigninmateswhoarecitizensofMemberStatesoftheEuropeanUnion).
AllthecategoriesincludedinthePartDrelatetothedefinitionof“prisoner”appliedinthemainSPACEI
questionnaire. This means that some countries may have included foreigners held for administrative
reasons in the total prison population, while other countries exclude such categories from the standard
definitionof“prisoner”.
All the limitations applicable to the Part D are justified as they allow keeping the detailed figures
comparablewiththeonesincludedinthemainTablesofthepresentreport.

The comparability of the data collected is one of the main concerns and main problems that any
internationalsurveyseektosolve.Therefore,specialattentionisgiveneveryyeartotheimprovementof
datavalidationtechniquessusedinSPACE.
According to the authors of the EuropeanSourcebookofCrimeandCriminalJusticeStatistics (Strasbourg,
CouncilofEurope,1999),"validationisoftenthemostimportant–andinmanycasesthemostforgotten–

Thus, since the 2002 SPACE I survey, we have introduced a validation procedure for the data received.
Suchproceduresubstantiallyincreasestheworkloadofalltheindividualsandcountriesinvolvedinthe

1. Changesincriminallaw:
a. The Act to Extend Courses of Action Available to Juvenile Courts (Gesetz zur Erweiterung der
jugendgerichtlichenHandlungsmöglichkeiten) of 4th September 2012 (Federal Law Gazette 2012
Part I, pp. 1854 et seqq.) contains relevant amendments to the Youth Courts Act
(Jugendgerichtsgesetz,JGG)thatareapplicabletothosewhowereyouthsatthetimeoftheoffence
(14to17yearsold)andtothoseyoungadults(18to20yearsold)towhomjuvenilecriminallaw
isappliedpursuanttosection105oftheYouthCourtsAct.
i. Firstly,byintroducingsection16aoftheYouthCourtsActandaccompanyingprovisions,
this Act created, with effect from 7 March 2013, the possibility of imposing youth
detentionontopofayouthpenaltyinonejudgment,ifexecutionoftheyouthpenaltyis
suspendedonprobation.Previously,youthdetention(whichcanbeimposedforatleast
a week's leisure time or as longer‐term detention for one to four weeks) and youth
penalty(atleastsixmonths)weremutuallyexclusive.Becausethereisariskofcounter‐
productiveeffects,theapplicationofyouthdetentioninthesecaseshasbeenlimitedby
statutetothreenarrowlydefinedcasecategories.Ifthecourtsapplythelawcorrectly,
thenumbersofinmatesinyouthdetentionfacilitiesarethereforenotlikelytoincrease
considerably. It is even conceivable that, in individual cases, a youth penalty will be
suspendedonprobationonlyifyouthdetentionhasbeenorderedundersection16aof
theYouthCourtsAct.Thiscouldleadtoan–albeitalsoratherinconsiderable–decrease
inthenumberofinmatesinjuvenileprisons.
ii. Secondly,byintroducingnewprovisionsinsections61,61aand61boftheYouthCourts
Act(inforcesince7October2012),theabove‐mentionedacthasalsocreatedrulesfor
postponing the decision on whether or not to suspend an imposed youth penalty on
probation. Especially in cases where it is not possible at the time of the judgment to
makeasufficient,positiveprognosisregardingprobation,thiscouldleadtoareduction
in the number of enforceable youth penalties and thus to a certain decrease in the
juvenileprisonpopulation.
b. Section 105 (3) of the Youth Courts Act was introduced by the above‐mentioned act with effect
from8September2012.Withthisprovision,thepossibilityhasbeencreatedforayouthpenalty
of up to 15 years to be imposed against young adults for particularly serious cases of murder,
insteadofthemaximumpenaltyof10yearswhichisusuallyapplicabletothisgroup.Thescopeof
applicationofthisprovisionwilllikelybemarginal.However,itisnotentirelyinconceivablethat

procedural actions; persons already sentenced and with custody measure imposed for being under
investigation or trial for other offences; persons detained who have been declared for nation‐wide
search; persons detained by the prosecutor under the Penal Procedure Code; persons conveyed in
stages, when in the respective police facility there are no conditions for their accommodation. These
inmatesrepresentaround10%ofthetotalprisonpopulation(seeSPACEI2012report).Becauseofthe
lack of reliable figures on the inmates held in IDF, the Bulgarian stock inputs for 2013 should be
consideredasbeingpartial.

Strasbourg, 15 December 2014, pc‐cp\space\documents\pc‐cp (2014) 11 PC‐CP (2014) 11 Council of Europe Annual Penal Statistics NOTES – TABLES 1.3 AND 1.4 InTables1.3and1.4,figureshavebeenadjustedaccordingtotheinformationprovidedbythecountries
onthecategoriesincludedandexcludedintheirtotalprisonpopulation(seeTable1.1).Indeed,inmany
countries, special institutions for the detention of juvenile offenders, drug‐addicts, mentally ill persons,
and administrative aliens are not under the authority of the Prison Administration. As a consequence,
personsheldintheseinstitutionsdonotappearinthetotalprisonpopulation.Onthecontrary,ascanbe
seeninTable1.1,othercountriesincludeallorsomeofthesecategoriesintheirprisonpopulation.Thus,
in order to produce figures on prison populations that are comparable across Europe, in Table1.3, all
personsunderthesespecialregimeswereexcludedfromthetotalnumberofprisoners.
PRIVATEFACILITIES
Persons held in private facilities were kept in the adjusted figures (Germany,
Turkey,UK:EnglandandWales,andUK:Scotland).
The total adjusted number of prisoners corresponds, in principle, to the number of inmates held in
penal institutions for adult inmates which are under the authority of the Prison Administration.
Nevertheless,thesedatamustbeconsideredwithcautionastheadjustmentsdonotnecessarytakeinto
accountalltheparticularitiesofthestatisticalcountingrulesappliedbyeachcountry.
METHODOLOGICAL REMARKS As some figures were missing (NA) in Table 1.1., it was not possible to adjust them in Table 1.3.
Specifically,thefollowingadjustmentscannotbemadevisible:

ForGreecetheaccuratefiguresonpersonswithpsychiatricdisordersheldinpsychiatricinstitutionsorhospitalsoutside
penalinstitutionsarenotavailable.Thelackofadditionalinformationmadeimpossibleanyadjustmentofthesefigures.
Therefore,figuresforthiscountryarepresentedbetweensquarebrackets[].

ForMacedonia,wewereabletomakeonlyapartialtheadjustmentofthetotalprisonpopulationbecauseofthelackof
accurate figure on persons held in custodial institutions/units for juvenile offenders. Therefore, figures for this country
arepresentedbetweensquarebrackets[].
Theresultsoftheadjustmentsmadeontherawdatashowthattheaveragedifferencebetweenthenon‐
adjustedandtheadjustedfiguresislessthan5%(Table1.4).Onlyfivecountriesshowedadifferenceof
more than 10% between both figures: Cyprus (30.8%), Malta (17.0%), France (14.1%), Belgium
(12.2%),andMonaco(10.3%).
In the special case of Cyprus, the difference is explained by a high number of persons held in police
stationswhoareassimilatedtopre‐trialdetainees.
TheadjustmentsmadefortheNetherlandsinthereportsbefore2009(untilSPACEI2009report)are
notcomparabletotheonesshowninthepresentreport.Thereasonisthat,since2010,theNetherlands
includeonlyadultinmatesheldinpenalinstitutions,excludingthusjuveniles,mentally‐illoffendersand
administrative aliens detained under special [custodial] regimes (see notes to Table 1.1), which were
previously included in the total number of prisoners. In the present report, the adjustment is made by
excludingonlythecategoryofpersonsunderElectronicMonitoring(differenceonly2%).IntheSPACEI
2009reporttheadjustmentconcernedalsojuveniles,personsheldincustodialclinicsandadministrative
aliens(whichledtoadifferenceof28.6%).
ForFrance,theadjustmentwasmadetakingintoaccountnotonlythefiguresprovidedinTable1.1.,but
alsothecommentstothattable.Therefore,theadjustedfigure(67,310)showstherealnumberofpersons
heldinpenalinstitutions(écrouésdétenus)andexcludesallthosewhowerenotdefactoheldincustody.
FiguresinTable1.3:accordingtotheinformationprovidedontheageofpersonsheldincustodialinstitutions/units
for juvenile offenders, in many countries there are high proportions of that population which are actually young
adults aged 18 and over (e.g. Germany, Romania). Yet, since they are held in these special penal institutions, it is
assumedthatsomeparticularregimesofdetentionareappliedtothemandtheyarenotassimilatedtoadultinmates.

NOTES – TABLES 1.5 AND 1.6 Tables 1.5 and 1.6 are based on non‐adjusted figures in order to ensure comparability with data from
previousyears.Inordertoincreaseaccuracy,thepercentagesshownininTable1.6werecalculatedon
thebasisoftherawdataprovidedbythecountries.
InTable1.5,allpreviousrateswererecalculated.Therecalculationtookintoaccount:
(1) Modificationstopreviousfiguresprovidedbythecountries,and
(2) Updatestothenationaldemographicdata(totalpopulation)foreachyearmadebyEurostat.
Indeed,whenproducingannualSPACEreports,sometimesonlyestimatesofthedemographicalsituation
ineachcountryareavailable.Thismethodologicallimitationledtosomedistortionsforcountrieswhere
thecalculationsarebasedonestimatesorprovisionaldata.Inthatcontext,thefirstSPACEreportsused
datafromtheCouncilofEurope demographicreports,whicharenolongerproduced.Consequently,we
later revised the results for all these countries and increased the comparability by using the same data
sourcefordemographicaldatainalmostallCoEMemberStates.
Currently, the main source for national population data is the Eurostat database, which is updated
constantlyandincludesfiguresforsomeofnon‐EUcountriesaswell.Thus,inordertoreduceasmuchas
possibletheeffectsofdifferentestimationproceduresandtousethelatestavailabledata,themajorityof
therecalculatedrateswerebasedontheEurostatfiguresofnationalpopulations.
Figures retrieved from the Eurostat database relate to 1st January of each reference year. However, the
lackofinformationforsomecountriesornationalentitiesrequiredtheuseofdatafromothersources(for
moredetails,seeChapterDemographicData).

Italian data until 2003 included juveniles in the total prison population. Since 2004 these
categories of inmates are no longer counted. Thus, data on the series from 2004 to 2013

Strasbourg, 15 December 2014, pc‐cp\space\documents\pc‐cp (2014) 11 PC‐CP (2014) 11 67 68 Council of Europe Annual Penal Statistics: SPACE I – 2013 BRIEF ANALYSIS In2013,therewereseventeenEuropeanPrisonAdministrationsthatexperienceddecreaseofmorethan
5% in their prison population rates: Georgia, Monaco, Czech Republic, Latvia, Cyprus, Sweden, Serbia,
SlovakRepublic,Malta,Croatia,Montenegro,theNetherlands,Bulgaria,Ireland,Poland,BH:Rep.Srpska,
andRussianFederation.
Indeed,theseobservationsarerelativeasthetotalnumberofinmatesinMonacowasonly29inmateson
1st September 2013 and 41 inmates in 2012 respectively. As a consequence, the variationsobserved on
such low values should not be considered as being significant. Moreover, as already stated above,
Bulgarian inputs are partial and do not include persons held in Investigative Detention Facilities [IDF].
Therefore, the series are fully comparable at the series level, but they do not correspond to the total
prisonpopulationofthecountry.In2012,thereweresevencountriesthatexperienceddecreaseofmore
than 5% in their prison population rates: Liechtenstein, Azerbaijan, Russian Federation, Montenegro,
Turkey,Spain,andSweden.Themostrecentdecreasetrendsbetween2012and2013wereobservedin
muchlargerEuropeanareathaninpreviousyears.
Inalongitudinalperspective,weobservethedecreasingtrendinRussianFederation:‐5.3%fortheperiod
between2012and2013.Thispositiveevolutionseemstopersist,becausetheobservedinputssince2010
werealreadygoingdown:‐8.2%between2011and2012and‐7.6%between2010and2011.
Previoustrends(between2011and2012)forothercountriesinthegroupthatdecreasedtheirPPRareas
following:Georgia‐4.6,CzechRepublic‐2.4%,Latvia‐4.1%,Cyprus+0.1%,Sweden‐5.3%,Serbia+1.9%,
Slovak Republic +3.2%, Malta +3.4%, Croatia ‐3.8%, Montenegro ‐7.7%, the Netherlands ‐2.6%, Ireland
+1.3%,Poland+3.4%,BH:Rep.Srpska+0.8%.HalfofallthecountriesinthisgroupdecreasedtheirPPR
duringtheperiodfrom2011to2012.
Thenumberofcountriesthatexperienceddecreasingtrendsbetween2012and2013doubledcompared
to previous periods. This increase of the number of countries experiencing positive evolution trends is
quite new for recent years, because previously the number of such cases remained relatively stable: 8
countriesin2012,in2011therewere7,in2010–5,andin2009thisnumberwasequalto9countries.
Ontheopposite,thereare10countriesthatexperiencedanincreaseofmorethan5%in2013.Twooutof
ten countries are Andorra and San Marino. The fluctuations in these countries should be interpreted in
line with the warnings provided previously for Monaco. If we exclude from the comparison those
countriesthathaveverylowprisonpopulations(lessthan50inmates),thenweobservethatthenumber
of countries with increasing trends during 2011‐2012 and 2012‐2013 remained quite the same. So we
notethefirststabilisationinthisgroup.In2012,thenumberofthecountriesthatincreasetheirPPRwas
goingdowncomparedto2011.Itmustbeemphasisedthatin2011therewere11countriesonthislist
andin2010theirnumberwasevenhigher(19).
ThisobservationbringsustotheconclusionthatanumberofreformsperformedinEuropeancountries
continuetobringpositivechanges.Furthermore,theideaofreinforcementofthealternativeswhichled
theimprisonmenttobeusedasultimaratiobycriminaljusticesystemsbecomesmoreconcrete.
50%ofthecountriesthatexperiencedanincreaseoftheirPPRbetween2012and2013hadalreadythe
sameproblemduringthepreviousperiodfrom2011to2012.Morespecifically,duringthislaterperiod,
the increase was observed in: Portugal (+7.7%), Switzerland (+7.6%), Armenia (+4.1%), and FYRO
Macedonia (+1.0%). Portugal is the only country on this list that increased its PPR during 2010‐2011
(+9.9%)aswell.
Countriesthatchangedtheirtrendsfromincreasingbetween2011and2012intodecreasing(orstable)
between2012and2013are:Lithuania(+7.3%forthe1stperiodto‐3.1%forthe2ndone)andSlovenia
(+7.9%forthe1stperiodto‐1.4%forthe2ndone).
Finally, the calculated median value of the evolution between 2012 and 2013 was ‐2.0%. Nevertheless,
thischangedoesnotallowconcludingtoaEuropeandecreaseofthePPR.Oneshouldpayattentiontothe
fact that the evolution from the European median of 125.6 inmates per 100,000 inhabitants in 2012 to
133.5in2013doesactuallyrepresentanincreaseof+6.3%.

Strasbourg, 15 December 2014, pc‐cp\space\documents\pc‐cp (2014) 11 PC‐CP (2014) 11 Council of Europe Annual Penal Statistics NOTES – TABLES 2.2.A AND 2.2.B Data provided in Table 2.2.a should be considered cautiously as the percentages could not always be
calculatedonthebasisofthetotalnumberofprisoners.
The following countries provided the age breakdown for sentenced prisoners only: Azerbaijan, BH:
RepublikaSrpska,Bulgaria,Latvia,Lithuania,Moldova,RussianFederation,andSweden.Forthese
countries, figures used in the first column of Table 2.2.a (Total number of inmates) correspond to the
sentencedprisonersonly,andthepercentagesarecalculatedonthebasisofthatfigures.
Itwasimpossibletocalculatethepercentagesofinmatesaged18tolessthan21forAzerbaijan,Greece,
andSwitzerlandbecausethesecountriesdidnotprovidethebreakdownforthisgroupofage(seenotes
below).Thepercentageofinmatesaged18tolessthan21forArmeniadoesactuallycorrespondtothe
result including persons aged between 18 to less than 25. For another three countries (Bulgaria,
Hungary&Poland)theagerangesareaswellslightlydifferentfromthemaincategory(“Prisonersfrom
18 to less than 21 years old”). For Hungary the range is from 18 to less than 22, and for Bulgaria and
Polandtherangeisfrom19tolessthan22.
In Table 2.2.b we included the total number of minors in the distribution (pre‐trials and sentenced
inmates).Suchadjustmentswerepossiblewiththeadditionalaccurateinformationmadeavailableinthe
comments by: BH: Republika Srpska, Bulgaria, Germany, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, and Sweden.
Therefore, for these countries the total number of minors does not match with the figures provided in
Table2(onlysentencedinmatesmadevisible).

CYPRUS
 As the breakdown is available for inmates held in the prison institution, figures for those held in police
stationswereexcludedfromthecalculationsforTable2.2.aTherefore,thetotalof592personsisprovided
in the first column of the table. The same total prison population was used for the calculations made for
Table2.2.b.
GEORGIA
 The information provided on the minor male inmates was unreliable. Therefore, we deleted these inputs
fromthereport.
GERMANY
 The total number of prisoners under 18 years is 863, of which 348 are pre‐trial detainees, and 515 are
sentencedprisoners.Consequentially,thepercentagesinTable2.2.aandTable2.2.bwerecalculatedonthe
basisofthewholepopulationinpenalinstitutions(incl.pre‐trials).
 The total number of prisoners between 18 and less than 21 years is 3,758, of which 1,035 are pre‐trial
detainees, and 2,723 are sentenced prisoners. Consequentially, the percentages were calculated on the
basisofthewholepopulationinpenalinstitutions(incl.pre‐trials).

Administration. In Cyprus, Norway, and Sweden, the definition of juvenile offender and the special


inthesecondcase[(a.2)and(b.2)],theheading(f)“Othercases”fromTable5isexcluded
Thesecondtypeofcalculationhasbeenintroducedonthebasisofadditionalinformationprovidedbythe
national correspondents, which can be found in the notes to Table 5. Indeed, it seems that a significant
partofthepersonsincludedundertheheading“Othercases”cannotbeassimilatedtopersonswaitingfor
afinalsentencetobeimposed(i.e.thiscategoryincludespersonsheldforsecurityreasons,personsheld
forcivilreasons,etc.).Nevertheless,inordertoensurethecomparabilityofthedatawithpreviousyears’
reports,wehavealsokeptthefirsttypeofcalculation(a.1andb.1).
IMPORTANT METHODOLOGICAL NOTES 
InTable5,whennodatawereavailableunderheading(c)“Sentencedprisonerswhohaveappealedorwho
are within the statutory limit for doing so” and no further information was provided, it is assumed that
prisoners in that situation are included among those under heading (e) "SENTENCED PRISONERS (FINAL
SENTENCE)".Inthatcase,theresultsunderheadings“Percentageofprisonersnotservingafinalsentence”
(a.1anda.2,Table5.1)andthoseunderheadings“Rateofprisonersnotservingafinalsentenceper100,000
inhabitants”(b.1andb.2,Table5.1)arepresentedbetweenbracketsandmustbeusedwithcaution.

In Table 5, when no data were available under heading (b) “Detainees found guilty but who have not yet
receivedasentenceyet”andnofurtherinformationwasprovided,itcannotbeexcludedthatprisonersin
that situation are included among those under heading (a) "UNTRIED DETAINEES (NO COURT DECISION
YET REACHED)". In that case, the results under heading (c) “Percentage of untried detainees (no court
decision reached yet)” and those under heading (d) “Rate of untried detainees (no court decision yet
reached)per100,000inhabitants”ofTable5.1arepresentedbetweensquarebracketsandmustbeusedwith
caution.

Squarebracketswereusedfor“merged”categories(e.g.categories(a)and(b)or(a),(b)and(c)ofTable5).
CROATIA

prisoners.
