Situation in the City specifically on how the agencies utilize their GAD Budget for
GAD Activities and how is it mainstreamed?
PNP: Not limited to 5%, they find ways through charging it to a possible budget item just
to implement GAD related activities.
Barangay ABC: Not exceeding to 5% budget expenses for GAD related activities. On
GAD Plan? GAD related activities are already included/incorporated in their BADAC.
City Prosecutor’s Office: Participant has no idea on GAD plan or GAD budget and they
also do not have GAD Focal but he put emphasis that their role is solely on prosecution.
But, since they are mandated to have a GAD plan he honestly said that he does not
have an idea about it because it is assigned to a different staff from the Regional
Prosecutor’s Office.
Programs and Trainings on Gender Sensitivity?
PNP: Police Community Relations are the ones organizing and conducting trainings related to
GS, Investigation Room are gender sensitive, women and children friendly.
Are the trainings on GS conducted every year? Yes.
Entire personnel are participating? No, because the office give more priority to the
investigators. Some personnel participate in trainings as representation or depending on the
order of the office.

because the department is now focusing on the new investigators.
Do you think you still need trainings on GAD? Yes, as refreshers.
How about in your data? Is it disaggregated into Women, Men, LGBT? Especially, in
cases. Do you specify it in your reports? Yes, in the Investigation Report Form (IRF) it is
already written there. What are the genders identified? Male, Female and LGBT? No, just
male and female but we will include LGBT soon. We just assess the client if they belong to the
LGBT category but is only placed in parenthesis in the narrative report.
Number of LGBT victims do we have data? PNP has data. Just through reading the
narrative. Format is just male and female.

the GAD code will be revisited this July or August 2019. From there, enhancement shall take
place.
