Abstract

The article is devoted to the issue of improving the conditions of prisoners in Ukraine. The author draws attention to the changes that have occurred in the internal regulations of penal institutions in 2014, on basic rights and duties of prisoners.
The author notes that the administration of the institution or body that a penalty must provide this information to prisoners and to acquaint them with changes in the order and conditions of serving the sentence; to humane attitude towards them and to respect their human dignity; prisoners must not be subjected to cruel, inhuman or degrading their degrading treatment. The impact of measures can be applied to convicted solely on the basis of law.
The researcher stressed that the positive changes in the direction of improving the conditions of prisoners in Ukraine, which took place recently will no doubt have an impact on the penal situation in the country. However, the current level does not correspond to generally accepted international standards in matters of human rights. Therefore, bringing order and conditions of execution and punishment into line with modern realities of criminal law is a priority implementation of the Concept of state policy on reforming the State Penitentiary Service of Ukraine.
