Report on the Assessment of the Compliance of the Correction and Rehabilitation Centers in Palestine with International Prison Standards to the conditions of the building. Not every inmate receives his own bed and bed furnishings as there were 70 inmates without beds at the time of the assessment.

Inmates with disabilities are granted a reasonable amount of facilities commensurate with the nature of the disability, but there is no policy for that. • Detention conditions: The Nablus CRC provides good detention conditions for inmates in terms of meals, hours of exposure to the sun, movement and the availability of sufficient clean water for the needs of inmates.
