Prison Population 269<br />
Compared to the earlier versions of this chapter, table 4.2 was not changed<br />
(except due to the changes in the offence group covered, as discussed in the previous<br />
chapters). It did not pose problems in the trial phase.<br />
The evaluation of the trial questionnaire made clear that most countries were<br />
not able to provide a breakdown for all requested sub-categories of the total<br />
prison population in tables 4.1.1 <strong>and</strong> 4.1.2 of the trial questionnaire. This is especially<br />
true for the sub-category of imprisoned aliens stemming from another EU<br />
country, but also for the sub-categories of persons held in institutions for drugaddict<br />
offenders, mentally ill offenders held in psychiatric institutions or hospitals,<br />
offenders serving their sentence under electronic surveillance (e.g. home detention<br />
curfew prior to final release from prison) <strong>and</strong> persons held in facilities under the<br />
responsibility of any other Ministry than the Ministry of Justice.<br />
Table 3.3 on the effective length of prison sentence served could also not be<br />
completed by most responding countries. Only Finl<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> UK: Engl<strong>and</strong> & Wales<br />
provided data.<br />
3. Final questionnaire <strong>and</strong> evaluation<br />
Due to these results, table 3.3 was not included in the final questionnaire. Also,<br />
several of the newly introduced sub-categories of table 4.1.1 were deleted for the<br />
final version. Table 4.1.2 was not changed.<br />
The new version of table 4.1.1 had the following wording:<br />
Table 4.1.1 Prison population (including pre-trial detainees): STOCK<br />

The evaluation of the final questionnaire showed that all responding countries<br />
