Dear Faith Katrina Anne Camba,

Greetings!

We refer to your letter dated December 28, 2022 about your request under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch, for Violence Against Women in NCR.

Your Request

Violence against women and children

Response to Request

This is in response to your request on the number of reported cases of violence against women and children in NCR from years 2012 to 2022. We would like to inform you that we can only provide you with the NCR VAW statistics that we have acquired from the Philippine National Police, which covers only the period from January 2016 to June 2022. The file that we received from the PNP is attached to this response.

In the Philippines, Republic Act 9262 or the Anti-Violence Against Women and their Children Act of 2004 penalizes domestic violence against women and their children. The law covers physical, psychological, sexual, and economic abuses committed by intimate partners.

As for your other requests, we recommend that you directly contact the PNP because it is our main source of data on reported cases of violence against women, based on their Crime Information Reporting and Analysis System (CIRAS). This electronic system is fully operational in all police stations and community precincts in the country.

Please ensure proper citation. You may also email the PNP Women and Children Protection Center at omd.wcpc@pnp.gov.ph and statistics.wcpc@yahoo.com.ph , for further assistance on data and analysis concerns.

As an additional data source, please also check the webpage of the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA), specifically the Annual Statistical Fact Sheets on Women and Men in the Philippines which, among others, contain VAW data: https://psa.gov.ph/gender-stat/wmf.

We wish to get your feedback on how we handled your eFOI request.

Please help us understand the quality of our services by taking a few minutes to respond to our client satisfaction survey which you can access through this link: https://bit.ly/GADIRSandFOIClientFeedbackSurvey.
