"The challenges regarding prison conditions and alternative sanctions are not easy to tackle", Henriksson said. She said earlier during the week that there is no plan under way to try to harmonize prison systems in the European Union.
Open prisons divide opinions in Finland. In one town in central Finland, a civic campaign tried to block the construction of an open prison in the downtown area, but failed and the construction began, local media reported.
Henriksson told Xinhua that in an opposite case a mayor of another town had expressed concern to her that the open prison in that town would not be closed.
Michael O'Flaherty, Director of the EU Agency for Fundamental Ritghts, addressed the meeting. He focused on the fundamental rights of people who have been detained.
