Council Member Aviles questions MOIA representatives about their interactions with NYPD, Department of Corrections, and Department of Probation regarding detainer requests. Rebecca Engel explains MOIA's engagement with these agencies.
- MOIA has had meetings with all three agencies and advised them on Local Law 228
- MOIA helped write NYPD's policy and provided advisement to DOC
- Interactions have been most frequent with NYPD due to significant policy changes
- DOP receives fewer requests from federal immigration enforcement, resulting in less frequent interactions

So can you tell us, does Moya have regular meetings with the NYPD, the Department of Corrections, and the Department of Probation on detainer requests?
Rebecca Engel

So we have had meetings, with all three of those agencies, and we have advised them on their, policies on look on specifically on local law 228.
0:40:46
We helped write the NYPD's policy.
0:40:48
We also gave advisement to DOC several years ago.
0:40:51
But before, I was at Moria, but I think it was of a similar variety.
0:40:54
And then DOP is among the agencies that we have sent emails to reminding them of their obligations under local law 228.

I would say it has been the most probably with the NYPD because
UNKNOWN

we significantly changed their policy

with the under their but then I would say so several times with NYPD.
0:41:20
And then in terms of DOC, mostly in the form of phone calls and, trainings.
0:41:25
And with DOP, not as much because DOP receives very few requests from federal immigration enforcement.
