European Committee for the Prevention of Torture
and Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment
(CPT)
13th General Report
on the CPT's activities
covering the period 1 January 2002 to 31 July 2003
Strasbourg, 10 September 2003
The CPT is required to draw up every year a general report on its activities, which is
published. For operational reasons, it has become standard practice for the general
report to be published in the late summer. To better reflect this practice, the
Committee has decided that future general reports should cover the 12-month period
from 1 August to 31 July. As a transitional measure, the 13th General Report on the
CPT's activities covers the 19-month period from 1 January 2002 to 31 July 2003.
This 13th General Report, as well as previous general reports and other
information about the work of the CPT, may be obtained from the Committee's
Secretariat or from its website:
