CGL20170509_12_15_44 Law 6/2017, of 20 April, of the law 3/2007, of 22 March, the body of the 6/2017 Law Prison April 20, to amend the Law 3/2007, of 22 March, of the Penitentiary Body since the General Council in its session of April 20 2017 has approved the following : Law 6/2017, of 20 April, of the law 3/2007, of 22 March, of the Penitentiary Body preamble on 22 March 2007, the General Council approved the law of Prison Body with the purpose, as is clear from the preamble, to establish and regulate the functions, structure and organisation of the Penitentiary Body, as well as the statutory disciplinary and of its members. The law is divided into sixty-seven articles distributed in four titles, two additional provisions, four transitional provisions, a repealing provision and four final provisions, which happened in the regulation of Prison officials, 30 September 1993. Was enacted in a contemporary with the law 4/2007, of 22 March, prison qualified, with the common goal of moving to the penitentiary to human rights and fundamental freedoms recognized by the Constitution, and frame the mission and functions of the body and its members to Prison regulations that are part of the internal legal system , but also to the international instruments signed and ratified by the Principality of Andorra.
After eight years and some odd since it came into force the law 3/2007, of 22 March, of the Penitentiary Body, in ressurt that the purposes to be sought with approval supply have been achieved. In addition, this law has allowed us to provide the legal framework and normative Body a Prison wide enough and, therefore, has only been partially changed much and recent form, under the law 23/2014, of 30 October, qualified for the creation and regulation of the pension plan of the public function. However, practical experience has demonstrated that it was necessary to make a general revision of the regulations to adapt them to the real and current needs, and that it was also necessary to add new provisions to resolve any shortcomings or gaps option was.
For these reasons it promotes a second modification of the law on the Penitentiary Body, with a much wider scope than the previous modification, by a law that is broken down into eighty-eight articles that reformed the vast majority of provisions of the law, five transitional provisions and final provisions.
Articles 1 to 12 substantially altered or expanded, depending on each case, the title and the law to make it possible that the body can eventually participate in the Prison transfer of people arrested, punished, and in internal prison and the execution of sentences and custodial measures which dictate the jurisdictional bodies. Although until now the law of the Penitentiary and prison law Body attributed these tasks exclusively to the police force, with the exception of transfers for reasons of urgency, it is considered appropriate to envisage the possibility of the Penitentiary Body can also take on this competition, if it determines so specific and later and for the regulatory pathway. On the other hand, establishes the membership of the body in the Prison, Department of prisons, which in turn relates to the Ministry responsible for justice rather than the Ministry of the interior, with the forecast that in the future both competence fields split, and since it is more logical that the prison services, which are closely linked to the administration of Justice , part of the Ministry in charge of Justice.
It also streamlines the definition of members of the Penitentiary Body and are distinguished specifically from civil servants or agents that belong to the General Body and perform administrative functions, technical or support; regulates the integration of the two groups near the Penitentiary Body and the Department of prisons, and defined the scope of application of the law in relation to these groups. Below extends the scope of the body beyond the Andorran territory in exceptional circumstances and emergencies, and affects in particular when it comes to receive or provide training courses. And there is an explicit reference to the technical and operational means and the facilities that are required for the Penitentiary Body for the exercise of its functions. Likewise, extending the principles of action of the members of the body and, in particular, the conditions and the requirements for the use of the firearm or firearms, and means of coercive and disclosure. And added two articles, beyond the principles of action, together with the obligations of the members of the body which until now were explicitly or implicitly referred to in a scattered and increase the relationship, and also review the powers of the members of the body.

Articles 13 to 40 restored, almost all the articles of title II of the law of the Penitentiary Body, which refer to the structure and the organisation of the body, and to the rules regarding the access, promotion and training, despite the fact that time also added new and derogate others. In addition to confirm several times the transfer of competence of the Ministry in charge of Justice, close to prison will define in more detail the responsibilities that correspond to the top management or to the Minister on the one hand, and on the direction of the Penitentiary Body on the other hand. In relation to the hierarchical structure, the first prison officer and non commissioned officer go to prison to qualify as a non commissioned officer and non commissioned officer top prison prison, respectively, which in the latter case is configured as a new level in the intermediate scale, and also move the degrees of prison officer and top prison official of the intermediate level to the Executive level, with the modifications of the consequent classification levels , and it is clear that the director and Deputy director are not a degree but a function. All this with the aim to accomplish with judicial pronouncements that have occurred in the past, to expand professional career prospects within the Penitentiary Body, and recognize at the controls the use and classification that corresponds according to the specialization and the growing complexity of the tasks that are assigned to it. In this respect, reference is made for the first time in the structure, and it fosters the creation and regulate in a more detailed way the services and functional structures can be created to accomplish the mission and the functions assigned to the prison of the body.
With regard to the process of provision of vacancies newly Penitentiary and as a member of the body, there is an impact from now from a sequential perspective, without prejudice to the specific rules applicable to each of the expect to be two procedures of provision of the squares, which are the selection procedure and the internal promotion, and without detracting from the fundamental principles that are contained in the law until now in force. This allows to provide rules on the access and internal promotion within the Penitentiary Body of expository clarity and a larger global coherence. By way of example, regulates firstly the proposal and the decision for the provision of vacancies and new creation of a member of the body, and the initial procedure to be followed for this purpose in relation to the members who are on a leave of absence without reservation. Then it refers to the subsequent procedure, which is properly in the provision by the selective procedure of entry or by internal promotion, depending on whether this provision concerns, respectively, the basic scale and degree of penitentiary agent, or other scales and degrees. And relate the requirements that you need to accomplish to aspire to a vacant square or new creation of a member of the Penitentiary Body: on the one hand, the minimum requirements applicable to all candidates, and, on the other hand, the additional requirements applicable to that aim well by selective admission, either by internal promotion. It is worth noting that eliminate a priori limitations relating to age and, on the other hand, will strengthen the requirements in terms of good repute, and of course, so that to aspire to a place that belongs to the basic scale must be in possession of the certificate of secondary education or its equivalent, whereas if the place belongs to the intermediate level or Executive, you need to be in possession of a certificate of higher education University. Also regulate the systems and testing for the provision of the vacant or newly created, the rules of the call, and the assessment of the merits, the scope of which was extended: so, are taken into account as a novelty the training acquired in studies of higher education and in professional training courses and specialization, and the absence of strong disciplinary sanctions. Finally, reference is made to the Technical Committee of selection, and detailed training periods and test once it has been retrieved from the vacant square or new creation, any delegate, however, via the regulatory determination of the duration of these periods to be able to adapt to the people concerned and to the functions that are inherent , and the General needs of Prison Body.
In relation to training, is introduced for the first time the concept of lifelong learning and personal development actions, and the director of the penitentiary Body is enabled to subscribe agreements or agreements in this field, without prejudice to the powers of the competent Minister or of the Government, and the requirements set out in the case of international treaties.
Articles 41 to 67 impact on title III of the law of the Penitentiary Body, which is dedicated to the statutory scheme, to modify all articles except one and add new ones. For the first time establishes a generic catalogue of rights and duties, and two additional new articles which refer to the safety and health at work, and in the monitoring of the health status of the members of the penitentiary Body according to the risks inherent in the activity carried out. At the same time they differ clearly the result of specific health examinations and medical/psycho or review, and the situation of the reform, given that start from different premises.

Also modifies very promptly and from an eminently formal Vista the regulation relating to the reward, in the honours, rewards and bonuses, and the uniform, badges and identification badges. With regard to the firearms authorised, will require that the members of the Penitentiary Body can carry them when they are out of service, with the exception of the premises of the Penitentiary and as long as they don't try to authorized areas for this purpose, the determination of which refers to the regulatory pathway, and regulates in a more detailed way the prohibition of the possession , the port and the use of these guns. In addition, apart from the coercive means, it mentions as a novelty of subject allowed; It provides for the obligation to follow the specific training and continued timely to them hard and use, as is happening with the guns, and reveals for the first time that the tenure, the port and the use of these means are conditioned to the fact that they can also carry firearms and make use of it. Finally, enter any obligations to register, report and medical review subsequent to the use of firearms and means of holding and coercive.
On the other hand, in relation to the administrative situations, regulates, together with the Commission services, the temporary assignment to occupy jobs with reserve, with the same requirements and effects, and also the transfer. With regard to retirement, referral is made to the provisions of the law on public function and of the law of creation and regulation of the pension plan of the public function. And regarding the trade union rights, it introduces an article that aims to improve the legal certainty and that, therefore, refers the supplementary regulation of this subject to the law of trade union rights.
Articles 68 to 85 fully reformed and completed the title IV, relating to the disciplinary system, and establish first, then provide the General provisions in the field of disciplinary responsibility, a new list of rights that several members of the Penitentiary Body that are the subject of a disciplinary procedure. Then update and extend cases of very serious offences, serious and minor in which can incur, or vary the rating, according to the casuistry evidenced since the entry into force of the law of Prison Body. By way of example, are incorporated as very serious offences the repeated failure of the working day without any justified reason, the performance without the necessary decision and with delay, when in serious pain to avoid a immediate and irreparable, dependent on, or the abandonment or severe disruption of the service; as serious offences, non-attendance at the meetings and the training courses are duly convened without justified cause, or the breach of the obligations in the field of safety and health at work, and as minor offences, the fact of not having in place the required documents, permits or permissions to accomplish the functions inherent in the work place , or not to respect the delivery times of the appropriate supporting documents. On the other hand, regulates separately and in more detail the prescription of fines and sanctions. And in regards to the sanctions, will tie in with the provisions of the law of the public function expanded-in some cases: for example, it is planned as a novelty the sanction of dismissal from the position of command in the event of very serious offences and serious, and it also becomes possible to decide the compulsory relocation in another place of work when it makes a very serious. In addition, regulate the consequences not only of the penalty of temporary suspension of the functions, but also the sanction mentioned compulsory relocation in another place of work. And expand the criteria for graduated penalties and to make possible a greater individualization when necessary to impose it.
With regard to the disciplinary procedure, there is a new regulation in more detail and from a sequential perspective, clearly distinguishing the initial phases of instruction and for the resolution of the file. In particular, to regulate for the first time the consequences of the abstention of the instructor, or coping with variation in the qualification of the allegedly missing task. And in addition, will expand or complete on time the rules relating to provisional measures, to the extinction of the responsibility, in the annotation and the communication of sanctions, to rehabilitation, and the prejudice criminal law.
86 article derogates all or almost all of the additional transitional provisions, and the end of the law of the Penitentiary Body, given that they have ceased to be right to be or has already been exhausted their deployment since it came into force, and are replaced by the new provisions of this law or, as happens with the second additional provision that establishes a remuneration premium , you decide to remove it for new members of the body. With regard to the third final provision, which amended the 2007 annual salary table of the Penitentiary Body, it becomes to change by virtue of article 87 to the effect to accomplish with the new changes in the hierarchical structure and that have been reviewed from. Finally, article 88 adds an annex to the law of the Penitentiary Body that connects professional occupations type, professional classifications and places of work of the members of the body.
The Act ends with five transitional provisions and final provisions. The five transitional provisions aim to establish what are the applicable rules in regard to disciplinary proceedings that are being processed to the date of the entry into force of the law; relate in what cases the members of the Penitentiary Body may not be eligible for voluntary retirement, all of them linked to disciplinary or criminal reasons set forth; guarantee the right to continue receiving the specific compliance that has been removed to the members of the body that already included at the date on which the law into force; regulate the transitory system related to the eventual loss of the specific premium in the case of reform, and fix the time limit of one year to enable and set up a suitable prison annexes especially for visits by family members or close relatives of the inmates who are unable to obtain exit permits.

Ultimately, the first final provision modifies several articles of the law to put the body in the Prison prison orbit of the Ministry in charge of Justice, make it possible to take eventually the powers related to the transfer of internal people to Prison, at the same time opens the possibility to carry out on the internal controls of toxins and breath and allow intimate visits from above. The second final provision entrusts the Government Regulation implementing the Act and the approval of a code of ethics. The third final provision establishes the rules that take account of the changes introduced in relation to the names and the level of classification of the members of the body.
