Chair Lee questions NYPD patrol executive recommendation from EO 13 audit

And one of the recommendations submitted by the NYPD is to establish a protocol requiring

that the communications division notify operations of any 911 calls related to the presence of federal immigration authorities or immigration matters.

And the recommendation says that a patrol executive will be sent to the scene.

What is a patrol executive?

Yeah, that's a great question.

That is information that we can share after we have more discussion with the NYPD and other IRC partners.

Do you know what I got as a uniform officer?

Do you know that it's going to be a separate person?

The wording is interesting.

Yeah, that's something I'll have to get back to you on.

Okay.

So I'll save those follow-up questions for this patrol executive for that time.

And then I know that EO 13, the six agencies had to make their policies and protocols regarding interactions with ICE available on their websites.

Do you know if that they have done so, if all of them have done so?

Now that the mayor has received the audit and adopted the recommendations for changes to the policies and protocols, agencies are beginning to implement those changes and will complete that process in the coming months.

The IRC is going to continue in our role as leadership to work with the agencies as they undertake this process, which also includes a public engagement component.

You know, the executive order actually, in terms of a specific timeline, requires the agencies to promptly publish their policies online, and that's something that the IRC is working to ensure that the agencies, in fact, do.

But there's no, like, set timeline of when, I mean, promptly.

There's no deadline, but promptly.

Okay.

Yeah.

And then who monitors the compliance?
