This case concerns Civil Beat's request for disciplinary records of 12 Honolulu police officers who were suspended for at least 20 days for various types of misconduct. The circuit court ordered HPD to disclose the records, finding that police officers have no privacy interest in such records based on a prior state Supreme Court case. On appeal, the Supreme Court vacated the circuit court's judgment, holding that police officers do have a significant privacy interest in their disciplinary suspension records under the state's Uniform Information Practices Act. However, the Supreme Court could not determine based on the limited record whether disclosure was required after balancing the privacy interest against the public interest, so it remanded the case back to the circuit court to conduct this balancing analysis.

Chapter 6 – Field Notes and Reporting
Field notes are the shorthand written record made by police officers from the time
they arrive at the scene until the assignment is completed. The following factors they arrive at the scene until the assignment is completed. The following factors
form the importance of field notes.
Field Notes are More Reliable Than an Officer’s Memory
It only takes a short period of time for some important details to slide away from
your memory and the only way to combat this potential loss of information is to rely
on field notes which you previously prepared.
Field Notes are the Primary Information Source for the Incident/Offense Report
Because the first-responding officer is usually the person who writes any incident
report which is required by the situation, field notes are important because they
represent the information which forms the content of the incident report.
Detailed Field Notes May Reduce the Need to Re-contact the Parties Involved
Once in a while, victims and witnesses get annoyed and even angry when they are
re-contacted by an officer who obviously did not take good field notes when he/she
talked to them earlier and therefore cannot complete the incident report without
additional information.
Field Notes Can be Used to Defend the Integrity of the Incident/Offense Report.
During courtroom testimony you may refer to field notes to refresh you recollection
of the events.
In terms of the incident report, the basic questions which the first-responding
officer to a crime scene needs to find answers for are the blank spaces on the officer to a crime scene needs to find answers for are the blank spaces on the
face of an incident report. Typically this includes information about who the
victims and witnesses are and how to contact them, the specifics associated
with the crime, and descriptions of the suspect.
There are also numerous other questions which must be asked called interrogatory
questions. These include: what, when where, who, how, and why. Although no
single set of questions can meet the needs for investigating all types of crime, there
are six primary questions which have long be recognized in the field for being very
useful.
While the exact layout for incident reports typically varies from one
jurisdiction to another, they all have a “face” with blanks into which the jurisdiction to another, they all have a “face” with blanks into which the
officer conducting the preliminary investigation enters basic case
information. These blanks require information about the type of crime
committed, the complainant, victim, witnesses, and offenders, and other
details. Additional investigative information is written in the blank space
available on the reverse of the face or on a page which may be referred to as
“continuation.”
For roughly a decade, there has been a voluntary program underway which is
moving police departments away from the basi.

This document discusses crime scene management and security. It defines a crime scene as the area where evidence of a crime may be found. The responsibilities of the first responder are to assist victims, secure witnesses and the crime scene to preserve evidence, and notify authorities. The crime scene must be cordoned off and a log kept of all entries and exits to prevent contamination. Proper crime scene management requires information management, manpower management, technology management, and logistics management. Securing the crime scene is crucial to preserve physical evidence and solve crimes according to Locard's exchange principle, which states that every contact leaves a trace.
Police provides safety to citizens. It always remains steady for arresting any criminal who is a threat for the safety of society. After registering the FIR from any citizen, police starts its work and on that basis it arrests the criminals if proofs are found against them. Once the criminals are arrested, police starts investigation from them. After getting all the proofs against the criminal, it is the duty of the police to present all the proofs honestly to the court so that the right man can get right punishment. The true and right information provided by the people to police helps a lot in arresting the criminals who try to spoil the peaceful environment of society. Along with low salary scale, facilities of modern technology such as computerized system of keeping records are not provided to police department which causes low efficiency. As it is the age of computers and all the organizations today use computers to maintain their records, so this facility should also be given to police department in order to increase their efficiency and to save their time.

Combined Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) Vessel List.Christina Parmionova
The best available, up-to-date information on all fishing and related vessels that appear on the illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessel lists published by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and related organisations. The aim of the site is to improve the effectiveness of the original IUU lists as a tool for a wide variety of stakeholders to better understand and combat illegal fishing and broader fisheries crime.
To date, the following regional organisations maintain or share lists of vessels that have been found to carry out or support IUU fishing within their own or adjacent convention areas and/or species of competence:
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR)
Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT)
General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM)
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC)
International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC)
Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO)
North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)
North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC)
South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO)
South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO)
Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA)
Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC)
The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.

30. In April 22, 2009, the LOI 02/09 Unit Crime Periodic Report (UCPER)
which is a a uniform procedure of reporting and recording of crime
incidents was established to generate a credible crime statistics which
served as the basis in planning, policy formulation, deployment of
resources, and budgeting.
Unfortunately, during the conduct of nationwide validation by the
Directorate for Investigation and Detective Management (DIDM) in
2013 to 2014, several dysfunctions were noted specifically the high
numbers of crimes that were not accounted from the police blotter
books. This rendered the crime statistics inaccurate and not reflecting
the true crime environment.

32. Some investigators are confused in counting
and classifying crimes; crime incidents were
being referred to the barangay justice system
even though they are not within the jurisdiction
of the Katarungang Pambarangay among
others.
In order to establish a uniform procedure for
crime recording, the DIDM developed the PNP
Crime Incident Recording System (CIRS) known
as the e-Blotter System on September 6, 2011.
It was adopted by all units of the PNP mandated
that all incident reports shall be entered to the
system.
33. Salient Features
1. It established an Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) on how to enter
data of incident in the Police Blotter by every Desk Officer, in line with
Quality Service Lane Program of the PNP to enhance the police frontline
services to satisfy the needs and expectation of the citizenry.
2. Incident Record Form (IRF) – A form to be filled out by the
complainant/victim. Once is signed and acknowledged by the Desk Officer
and COP, the data that were provided by the complainant in the IRF shall
be entered and recorded in the Police blotter book.
34.
35. Salient Features
3. Duty of the QSL Officer. As soon as a client or complainant enters the police station
and its ascertained that his purpose is to file a complaint or to request to record a
data in the Police Blotter, the Duty Officer of the QSL must accord the client with
due respect and politely ask the person the nature of his transaction. The IRF shall
be made available to the client for him to fill out.
4. Office Space for Clients. The QSL Duty Officer shall at all times guide and assist the
client in filling out the form. In the event that the client is illiterate or incapacitated
to fill out the IRF, the QSL Duty officer shall do the same for him. The COP of the
station shall make available a space in the police station where this process is done, in
the privacy outside the scrutiny of kibtzers.
36. 9. Turnover to Police Investigator. Thereafter, it is the duty of the police officer who
is in-charge of the police Blotter to Lodge the complaint to the proper
investigator who will handle the case. The investigator should interview the
complaint on the nature of his complaint and ensure that all entries therein are
complete to prevent duplication and relieve the complainant from repeating his
narration.
10. Manual Recording of the crime Incident Report from the IRF to the Police Blotter.
The crime incident report in the IRF, after the transaction with the reporting
Person has concluded, shall be transcribed and entered into the police stations
equipped with the crime incident Reporting System, popularly known as the e-
Blotter, the designated crime registrar will likewise enter the record into the
System.
11. Establish Incident Recording System ( Blotter Procedure Flowchart)
37. 5. Confidential Reports. Whenever the subject of the complaint involves
confidentiality, as in cases involving protection of women and children, the QSL
Duty Officer shall escort the client to the female Duty Investigator of the WCPD
where the filling out of the IRF shall ne done.
6. The narrative of the Incident. The facts of the incidents should be narrated by the
complainant. It contains a narrative of what happened, answering the five W’s ( Who,
What, When, Where, Why and one H ( How )
7. Importance of Signature. It is necessary and mandatory requirement that at the end
of the narration of every incident, the duty officer and complainant certifying the
correctness of the narration.
8. Incident Record Transaction Receipt.
39. In April 2014, a web-based CIRS was developed.
The stand-alone system became an in-house
web development system and CIRS was
renamed into "eBlotter System."
Crime Incident Reporting System ( CIRS ) - is an
electronic database system that facilitates crime
documentation and systematic data storage and
retrieval.
The system presents a quick, fast and reliable
transmission of crime information from lower
police units and offices of the PNP to National
Headquarters.
40. Database shall include all incidents entered and stored into the CIRS. It is
a collection of information organized in such a way that a computer
program can quickly select desired pieces of data organized by filed,
record and files.
Incident Record Form (IRF) – is an accountable form to be filled out by a
complainant, to be assisted by the QSL Duty Officer. The IRF becomes an
official document once it is signed by the investigators and the reporting
person in which the information contained shall be recorded in the police
blotter, uploaded to the CIRS and becomes the first document included in
the case folder.
41.
42. Quality Service Lane (QSL) – is a customer friendly quality service desk
manned by a Desk Officer and other designated PNCOs, under the
supervision of the Duty Officer of the Police Station, which shall provide
the initial point of contact for all concerns or problems of a complainant in
the police station.
Under-Reporting of Crimes – is the deliberate non-submission of crime
incidents recorded in the Police Blotters by responsible officers that
resulted in the inaccurate and decreased crime statistics in his area of
jurisdiction.
43. PROCEDURE
The following procedures shall govern the actions to be undertaken by key
responsible personnel in the uploading of the crime incident into the CIRS.
a. The Desk Officer (DO) shall entertain and receive the report from the complainant
and initially recorded the complaint into the blotter book indicating the entry
number, date, name, place and nature of the incident.
b. The DO shall initially determine whether the incident is a crime or not. If the
incident involves the commission of a crime, the complainant will be endorsed to
the Duty Investigator, otherwise he shall be referred to the Duty Officer who shall
address his concern.
44. c. The Crime Registrar, under the mandatory supervision of the Duty Investigator, shall
commence the entry of data into the CIRS
d. The Duty Investigator and the complainant shall review together the information and
the summary details of the incident provided by the latter.
e. If no correction or additional information, the Crime Registrar shall immediately
upload the data into the CIRS, assisted by the Duty Investigator.
f. After storing the final data into the CIRS, the Crime Registrar, with the assistance of
the Duty Investigator, shall now print completed IRF.
45. g. Three copies of the IRF shall be printed by the Crime Registrar, which shall be signed
both by the Duty Investigator and the complainant.
h. The Desk Officer shall make a daily accounting of all crime incidents reported into
the police station and referred to the Duty Investigator during his tour of duty. The
DO shall likewise follow up and review the status of the incidents referred by him to
the Duty Investigator.
i. The Duty Investigator shall ensure that all signed IRF acted upon by him and the
Crime Registrar shall be written down into the Police Blotter by the DO.
j. The Crime Registrar shall ensure that he receives the IRF of all crime incidents from
the DO.
46. k. The records in the System shall be updated from time to time by the IOC as to the
development and disposition of the case, once a case was filed, when a Warrant of
Arrest was issued, a suspect was arrested or any other pertinent details on the
progress of the case like dates of inquest, arraignment, trial up to the final
promulgation.
l. In the event that there is no internet connectivity in the workstation where the
incident is being encoded to, the preceding procedures still apply. However,
immediately thereafter, a soft copy of the same should be brought by the Crime
Registrar to the nearest police unit / office with internet connection, for uploading
into the CIRS.
50. In order to have better analysis of
the encoded crime incidents, e-
blotter was further enhanced to
include graphs, crime maps, crime
clock, etc. and was later called the
Crime Information, Reporting and
Analysis System (CIRAS).
The core objective of the CIRAS is
to serve as a scientific
management tool for efficient and
effective prescription of police
intervention.
51. It specifically serves as a crime database and can identify crime hot spots
along with other trends and patterns; and use of spatial (space) and time
series analysis; generate graph/data in just a matter of minutes; establish
comprehensive, adequate and timely information on crimes from manual
and antiquated to computerized and integrated crime reporting system;
interface with the Case Information Database Management System
(CIDMS), e-Rogues Gallery and the e-Warrant System; overlay other data
sets - localities, AORs, critical facilities and structures.
It also provides a logical basis for troop deployment and movement, and
builds a robust Information Technology infrastructure to support the
entire system.
52. PURPOSE OF PNP MC NO. 2018-050
a. To revise the existing policy in recording crime incidents under Letter of
Instructions (L01) 02/09 UCPER and introduce salient provisions that will
treat several lapses noted in the past; and
b. To deliver well-guided procedures in reporting, identifying, recording
and counting of crime incidents that start from the time a complainant
or reporting person relays his information or lodges complaint in all
investigating offices/units of the PNP.

Peace and Order Index (P01) — an index which categorizes crime incidents that
reflect the true essence of crime, peace and order situation of a particular community.
This comprises the totality of Index and Non-Index Crimes.
Public Safety Index (PSI) — an index which categorizes incidents and culpable felonies
that reflect the public safety situation of a particular community. This comprises the
totality of vehicular incidents and other quasi-offenses punishable under the RPC.
Total Crime Incidents (TCI) — pertains to the number of crime incidents committed in
a given area over a period of time that are reported and recorded in the police blotter.
It does not include crime incidents that are reported to the barangays and Other Law
Enforcement Agencies (OLEA);
TCI = Total P01 + Total PSI
55. RECORDING OF CRIME INCIDENTS
Violation of local ordinances – shall not be counted and same is not considered as
crimes.
Frustrated and Attempted Index Crime shall be recorded as it is. Ex. Attempted shall
ne recorded as Attempted Murder and Frustrated Murder shall be recorded as
Frustrated Murder.
Cattle Rustling under LOI UCPER 2019 shall now be delisted from the category of
Index Crime and shall be treated as Non-Index Crime.
Parricide and Infanticide shall be recorded as it is and be counted in the category of
murder.
56. COMPLEX CRIME
a. For Compound Crime. The grave and less grave felonies as the result of the single act
shall be recorded.
Example of compound crime: Murder and Frustrated Murder
Mr. A with intent to kill threw a hand grenade to Mr. X and Mr. Y who were attending a
meeting. As a result Mr. & survived despite sustaining fatal injuries. The crime of
Murder and Frustrated Murder shall be recorded
57. COMPLEX CRIME
For complex crime proper. The crime to recorded shall be the one primarily intended by
the suspect to commit and not the crime which was used as a means to commit the
other.
Example of complex crime proper:
Forcible Abduction with Rape – the victim was abducted as a means for the
commission of the crime of rape. The crime of rape which is one primarily intended
by the suspect to commit shall be recorded.
Estafa thru Falsification – the suspect committed falsification as a means to commit
estafa. The crime of estafa which is the one primarily intended by the suspect to
commit shall be recorded.
58. COMPLEX CRIME
b. For composite crime ( special complex crime). The same shall be recorded as follows:
1. Rape with homicide
2. Kidnapping with homicide
3. Robbery with Rape
4. Robbery with homicide
5. Robbery with serious physical injuries
6. Robbery with Arson
59. COMPLEX CRIME
For multiple crime, the number of crimes to be recorded shall be based on the separate
and distinct crimes committed and several victims offended.
Example.
“A”, robbed a convenience store. In order to facilitate his escape, he carnapped a car at
the parking lot. While being chased by a mobile car, he ran over a crossing pedestrian
who died on the spot. The next day, “A” was cornered by the police in an abandoned
warehouse thus, held hostage an elderly woman inside. As such, he committed the
following crime: Robbery, reckless imprudence resulting in homicide, carnapping and
serious illegal detention.
60. For multiple crime, the number of crimes to be recorded shall be based on the separate
and distinct crimes committed and several victims offended.
Example.
“A”, robbed a convenience store. In order to facilitate his escape, he carnapped a car at
the parking lot. While being chased by a mobile car, he ran over a crossing pedestrian
who died on the spot. The next day, “A” was cornered by the police in an abandoned
warehouse thus, held hostage an elderly woman inside. As such, he committed the
following crime: Robbery, reckless imprudence resulting in homicide, carnapping and
serious illegal detention.
61. For continuing crime, the incident should be recorded as single crime by the police unit
with the territorial jurisdiction that first took cognizance of the crime .
Example.
Robbery of a Bus – A robbery incident transpired inside a bus while traversing
Mandaluyong, San Juan and Quezon City. As a continuing crime, the said robbery
incident shall be recorded by the Police unit with the territorial jurisdiction which first
took cognizance of the case. If by any cause the Quezon City Police first took cognizance
of the crime, then the same shall be acquire jurisdiction and record the incident.
62. This PNP MC amends the PNP
MC No. 2018-051 as well as the
terminologies of Peace and
Order (POI) and Public Safety
Index (PSI) under its provisions
without changing its framework.
Further, this MC supplements
counting mechanism for a more
comprehensive and clearer
guidance.

68. Rape shall be recorded based on how many time the rape was committed against the
victim regardless of the number of the perpetrators ( PNP MC 2018-50)
For the purposes of accounting, the crime of rape shall be recorded in the
following manners;
a. Multiple counts of rape reported in a single blotter entry shall be recorded and
counted as one offense of rape but he number of counts of rape was committed shall
be indicated.
Example: A rape X on Feb 14, 18 and March 22. X reported to WCPD on March 23 to
narrate the incident and file a complaint. It shall be counted as one offense of rape but
the number of counts the rape was committed shall be reflected in CIRAS
69. Incident committed by several perpetrators on a single occasion, shall be
recorded and counted as one offense of rape indicating the number of
counts the rape was committed and name of perpetrators;
Example: A, B and C gang rape X on Feb 14. X reported the incident to
WCPD. It shall be counted as one offense of rape but the number of
counts the rape was committed and the number of perpetrator shall be
reflected in CIRAS.
70. Rape committed in several places with different territorial jurisdiction and
reported in a single blotter entry shall be recorded by the territorial unit
which first took cognizance of the complaint/case.
Example: A rape X on Feb 14 in Tagaytay and on March 22 in Sta Rosa City.
X reported to WCPD of Sta Rosa Police City Police Station on March 23 to
narrate the series of incidents and file a complaint. It shall be counted as
one offense of rape by Sta Rosa CPS which first took cognizance of the
complainant/case. This will prevent double entry on one offense of rape
committed in different territorial jurisdictions.
71. ‘Only the Crime under Katarungang Pambarangay Law shall be referred to
the Barangay” otherwise it shall be a clear violation of Rules of Criminal
Procedure.
It will not reflect the true crime picture based on the policy that cases
referred to the barangay are not included in the counting of total number
of crimes.
73. This MC sets forth the guidelines and
procedures in the proper management
and information access of data in the
police blotter and those encoded in
CIRAS.
Since 2016, CIRAS was utilized as the
repository of all crime incident
information emanating from the
compliant received by the police and
those written in police blotter. Such
reports includes information of
complainants, victims and suspects
which are deemed confidential.
74. MEMO CIRCULAR NO. 2020 -037 - POLICE BLOTTER AND CIRAS INFORMATION ACCESS
Disclosure of theses information, most especially to those who are not directly
involved may results to information misuse.
Since the police blotter is considered a public document, stakeholders such as media
practitioners and students among others have perceived such as a document which
they can freely access, view, browse and reproduce.
However, such practice violates existing laws and policies such as the Data Privacy
Act of 2012 and the provisions stated in the PNP FOI Manual.
75. MEMO CIRCULAR NO. 2020 -037 - POLICE BLOTTER AND CIRAS INFORMATION ACCESS
The Data Privacy Act of 2012 prohibits the disclosure of any personal information
without the consent of the data subject of the information. For example, a blotter
entry which indicates the name, age, and address of a suspect shall not be divulged to
anyone without the permission of the person concerned
In consonance, under the provisions stipulated in the PNP FOI Manual, the PNP shall
ensure that information in its custody or under its control is disclosed only as
permitted by existing laws and shall likewise protect personal information in its
custody or under its control by making reasonable security arrangements against
unauthorized access, leaks or premature disclosure
76. GENERAL GUIDELINES
The police blotter and CIRAS entries are considered properties of the PNP and its
officers shall be held responsible for its confidentiality.
Police blotter and CIRAS entries contain personal information of complainants, victims,
and suspects. Under the Data Privacy Act of 2012, the same shall not be divulged to
anyone unless they are among the real party-interest or there is an order from the
