As you know, I'm very, very concerned about the significant increase in summons that had been issued since mayor Adams came into office.
2:54:34
60% increase across the board.
2:54:37
Can you break down for us which agencies are responsible for the greatest increase in summons issued during mayor Adams tenure or year over year if that's an easier dataset to utilize?
Asim Rehman
2:54:49
Yeah.
2:54:49
Just one moment, please.
2:54:58
So if we if we do consider year over year, I can I can give you a comparison for certain agencies with respect to someone's issuance as to fiscal year 24 versus fiscal year 23 or fiscal year 24 versus fiscal year 22 or 21?
Lincoln Restler
2:55:23
21 would be great.
2:55:24
It's crazy.
Asim Rehman
2:55:25
Right.
2:55:25
So 21, the largest increase let me just line up my numbers here.
2:55:32
One moment.
2:55:35
The greatest increase that we've seen it owes now the the numbers I'm looking at cover the majority of agencies.
2:55:43
We have different datasets because of different systems.
2:55:46
So what I'm reading to you is likely leaving out TLC and d and some DOH MH.
2:55:51
But if you put those aside and we talk about the rest of the remaining enforcement agencies, The police department's issuing rate issuance rate has gone up the the volume of of what we've seen with the police department fiscal year to date.
2:56:07
Has been it is 41779.
2:56:12
That is a 287% increase from the 2887.
2:56:17
Yeah.
2:56:18
287.
2:56:18
That's a 287% increase from the same period fiscal year to date in fiscal year 2021.
Lincoln Restler
2:56:26
Okay.
2:56:26
And is that the largest agency increase?
Asim Rehman
2:56:29
Oh, I'm sorry.
2:56:30
I missed one.
2:56:30
The DEP has a year to date total this year, this fiscal year issuance 50,000 216, that represents a391% increase in issuance with summons is filed with oath as compared to fiscal 2021 year to date.
2:56:57
And then the largest is come in.
2:57:12
Those would be the two numbers that I I would put in the you know, triple digits in terms of increases since 2021.
Lincoln Restler
2:57:21
Okay.
2:57:22
That is very helpful.
2:57:23
We appreciate you providing that data.
Asim Rehman
2:57:25
Oh, I'm sorry.
2:57:25
Health.
2:57:26
Health.
2:57:26
For the category of health that we do track, it's a 340% increase.
Lincoln Restler
2:57:30
And what category is that just for
Asim Rehman
2:57:31
our Oh, so so d o h m h, within the data I'm looking at, certain summons that they certain summonses that they issue our captured in this dataset and certain or not.
2:57:42
With the ones that are captured in this dataset, it's a 340% increase.
2:57:47
The total number year to date is 28,600 12.
Lincoln Restler
2:57:52
Okay.
2:57:52
Thank you very much.
2:57:53
We would love if you would be amenable to submit this for the record so that we can just look at the agency by agency breakdown.
Anthony Feldmesser
2:57:59
Sure.
Lincoln Restler
2:58:00
And how that's evolved over time.
2:58:02
You know, it is it's clear that there's been a deliberate policy decision by this administration that's led to 300% and 400% increases of summons that are issued I'm just wondering a couple related questions.
