Instruction issued to prison directors by the Prisons Department at the Spanish Ministry of Justice on detainees’ ability to communicate with lawyers. 

Timetables should be set up to allow inmates to communicate with their lawyers, while visits are prohibited (except in exceptional circumstances). 200 mobile phones have been bought to support this and the Prisons Legal Advice Service (Provided by Bar Associations) will continue to offer support through videoconference.
