Council Member Williams and Commissioner Strauber discuss the process of tracking and updating the status of recommendations made to the NYPD. The Commissioner explains how changes in recommendation statuses are recorded and communicated.
- There's a statutorily mandated response from NYPD 90 days after a report is issued
- Changes in the department's position on recommendations are noted in the annual report
- The annual report becomes the best summary of the current status of recommendations

Okay.
1:17:27
And you kinda answered another question here, but now I wanna ask you explicitly, which is as you track the implementation of the recommendations from any of your reports, the statuses of the recommendations often change sometimes from rejected to implemented or even from partially implemented to rejected.
1:17:45
The NYPD, however, only appears to provide an initial response to the report and recommendations.
1:17:50
So is it more so, like, that internal back and forth?
1:17:53
And then do you kind of update the status?
Jocelyn Strauber
1:17:58
Exactly.
1:17:58
So Okay.
1:17:59
The process is there's a statutorily mandated response 90 days after we issue a report that goes through each recommendation.
1:18:05
To the extent that the department's position changes, and it can change in the ways that you just described, we would note that in our annual report.
1:18:12
And if in the dialogue that we're having with them there is an explanation, we will put that explanation in the report as well.
1:18:19
So that becomes then the the best, you know, summary of the current status.
