policies affecting POCs, and provides additional guidelines
concerning POPS Plans, POPS PCMS, and POC Performance Audit
MC 2022-118 OR THE GUIDELINES ON THE

Safety Plan (POPS Plan}, consistent with the new policy and
operational developments in the realm of peace and order and public
safety.
Ensure the inclusion of illegal drugs as a mandatory sub-focus area of
the POPS Plan, a Sub-Technical Working Group (Sub-TWG) for the
formulation of the Local Anti-Drug Plan of Action (LADPA) shall
also be determined.
6. OVERVIEW OF PEACE AND ORDER AND PUBLIC
SAFETY PLANNING
The POPS Plan is a three-year term-based plan which shall be
incorporated into the Comprehensive Development Plan
(CDP) of the Local Government Unit (LGU).
It is to be formulated and approved by the POC to improve life
in the communities by ensuring social protection and safety.
As a requirement for consideration and review of the DILG,
the POPS Plan serves as the basis of approval for budget
allocation for the so-called Confidential Fund.
7. OVERVIEW OF PEACE AND ORDER AND PUBLIC
SAFETY PLANNING
Confidential Fund (CF) refers to the lump-sum amount
provided in the General Appropriations Act (GAA) for
National Government Agencies (NGAs), in appropriation
ordinances for Local Government Units (LGUs). It can also
apply to the Corporate Operating Budget (COB) for
Government-Owned and Controlled Corporations (GOCCs),
for their Confidential Expenses (which refer to expenditures
related to surveillance activities in civilian government
agencies that are intended to support their mandate or
operations).
8. OVERVIEW OF PEACE AND ORDER AND PUBLIC
SAFETY PLANNING
The computation of allowable CF of an LGU shall be based
on the budget of the LGU’s Peace and Order Programs
only.
The total amount for CF shall not exceed 30 percent of the
total annual amount allocated for the LGU’s Peace and
Order Programs.

threat to the environment, ecological systems, and its surrounding
communities

Guide Question:
What should be the aims in addressing these
issues/problems?
54. C. Priority Peace and Order and Public Safety
Challenges
Instructions:
Workshop: Proposed Questions for the Identification of Priority
Issues
1. Building on the results of the Vision-Reality Gap Analysis, what are
the current and emerging specific manifestations of threats,
instability, and vulnerability in our locality? Where and how are they
particularly manifested?
Alternate question: What are those that strike fear in our citizens
and make them feel insecure?
2. What might be the sources or causes of such issues?
3. Using the results of the Vision-Reality Gap Analysis and the group’s
appreciation of the issues, rank the issues to come up with the key
issues that the POC should focus on for the period 2023-2025.
55. 2. Profile of Priority Peace and Order and Public
Safety (POPS) Issues in the Locality
Rank an issue based on: (a) intensity of impact/consequence, and (b)
likelihood of occurrence.
Determine the Intensity of Impact/Consequence ( “I” or column 1 of
Box 5)
1 - Very Low Impact (a minor inconvenience)
2 – Low Impact (small disruptions)
3 - Medium Impact (suspension of operations, minor injury)
4 – High Impact (serious to very serious injury or loss of lives, serious to
very serious loss of significant assets or damage)
Determine the Likelihood of Occurrence (“L” column 1 of Box 5)
1- Very Low Likelihood of Occurrence
2 - Low Likelihood of Occurrence
3 – Medium Likelihood of Occurrence
4 – High Likelihood of Occurrence
56. 2. Profile of Priority Peace and Order and Public
Safety (POPS) Issues in the Locality
Determine Rating (“Rt” column 1 of Box 5 )
Compute for seriousness of the issue: Intensity of
Impact/Consequence X Likelihood of Occurrence
Determine Rank of POPS Issue (“Rn” column 1 of
Table IX)
The higher the rating, the more serious the issue. Confirm
with the group the ranking of issues based on the rating.
“It is best that resources be focused on addressing a few
issues and be effective in resolving them, rather than
spreading resources thinly to address too many issues,
rendering the interventions ineffective in resolving them.”

Safety (POPS) Issues in the Locality

the profile of your priority POPS issues in this section.

the objective. Make sure that the indicators are measurable.
Step 3. Set the target for achieving the objective within 3
years (POPS Plan term 2023-2025).
62. D. Objectives, Strategies, Targets,
Indicators, and Baseline Data
Step 4. Set the target indicator measure for every year
(POPS Plan term 2023-2025). This is where the annual
target indicator measure will be encoded.
Step 5. Provide the Baseline Data in accordance with the
set Indicator Targets.
Step 6. Provide the Baseline Year as support to the
Baseline Data provided.
Step 7. Using the information provided in Chapter/Table C,
define the strategies that will best lead to the meeting of

who will lead and give attention to the implementation of
strategies that will ensure the achievement of the objective.
A champion outside the POC may be selected as needed.
63. Strategy Formulation Matrix by Peace and Order
and Public Safety (POPS) Issue
Reference:
• Objective – a state you would like to achieve
Guide Question: What would you like
to attain and accomplish in your
locality?
• Indicator – a standard against which you would
like your performance in achieving your objective
measured. It should be quantifiable.
•
• Target – a measurement for the successful
achievement of your objective within three years
(annual targets will also be used for Reporting
Form 2).
Example: 60% Reduction in Robbery Cases
64. Strategy Formulation Matrix by Peace and Order
and Public Safety (POPS) Issue
• Indicator Targets – annual target indicator measure.
Example: If the Term Target is 60% reduction of
robbery cases, then the 60% must be divided
annually based on the agreed target by the
POC. It doesn’t have to be equally divided. For
example, an LGU can target 20% on the first
year, another 20% on the second year, and
another 20% on the 3rd year of the term to have
a total of 60% by the end of the term.
• Baseline Data – starting point of a measure from
which targets for successful achievement of an
objective would be set.
Example: 56 or 56 cases on the 2nd
quarter of 2022
• Baseline Year – starting year which was used in the
Baseline Data.
Example: 2022
65. Strategy Formulation Matrix by Peace and Order
and Public Safety (POPS) Issue
• Strategies – the plan of action for the approach
taken in meeting the objective. There can be several
strategies for one objective.
Guide Question: How would you meet your
objective?
• Champion – the name of the person and the agency
who can take the lead in developing and
implementing strategies for the said objective and
ensuring the implementation of related activities
(policy change, program, project, activities, and
service enhancements).
