Dear Hong Kong Police Force Operations Wing,

Please provide information on how the police shares information internally (i.e. across departments and between offices). What policies govern the internal sharing of information? What information sharing systems or processes are used?

For example, how does the police share: criminal history records, law enforcement incident reports, records of judicial actions and decisions, and watch lists of known and suspected terrorists?

Yours faithfully,

Charlie

Dear Hong Kong Police Force Operations Wing,

Thank you for your message.

Please could you confirm generally whether or not the HKPF engages in any systematic or automated forms of information sharing (without disclosing the particulars of any such processes)? There is no actual or reasonable expectation of harm in this disclosure (of which is in the public interest).

On the same basis, please could you confirm whether or not the HKPF uses a system that converts handwritten police statements into text searchable formats (Optical Character Recognition) which is used by many law enforcement agencies globally.

Yours faithfully,

Charlie
