The summary

Nearly twenty-five years following their creation, the penitentiary integration and probation services (SPIP) remain unknown, even though they play a major role in the fight once morest recidivism. The Law Commission wanted to shed light on their activity and assess whether the effort made since 2014 to strengthen their workforce has begun to bear fruit.

The rapporteurs met around fifty interlocutors and went to the Baumettes penitentiary establishment in Marseille. They noted that the profession of prison integration and probation counselor (CPIP) had changed profoundly, to be more in line with the penal and criminological field, which implies ensuring, in return, the multidisciplinary nature of the services in order to provide quality social support everywhere. The commission recommends continuing recruitment in order to get closer to the objective of sixty people monitored by CPIP and to upgrade the profession of prison director of integration and probation.

The SPIP acts on judicial mandate and maintains a dense network of partnerships. Progress remains to be made to establish a climate of trust everywhere with the socio-judicial associations working in the field of probation. The links would benefit from being further tightened with the public employment service and with those involved in integration and training so as to better guarantee the continuity of career paths.

Finally, the commission invites to open controlled access to digital in detention, which would facilitate the implementation of reintegration policies, and to develop a real evaluation of the effectiveness of sentences.
