ADMINISTRATIVE DECREE #0004

Effective immediately, we are implementing the following changes:

CSD Closure: The Crime Suppression Division (CSD) will be temporarily closed. This decision has been made after careful consideration of the current situation and the need to allocate our resources more efficiently.

SWAT Deployment Restriction: The deployment of our Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) unit will be restricted to specific scenarios. SWAT will only be deployed in the following situations:

a. Heavy Weapons Use: When there is credible intelligence or visual confirmation that criminals are using heavy weapons, SWAT will be authorized for deployment.

b. Barricaded Individuals: SWAT may also be deployed in cases where criminals have barricaded themselves in a location, posing a significant threat to public safety, and regular police forces are unable to safely resolve the situation.

ADMINISTRATIVE DECREE #0005

For Detectives to become part of Supervisory Staff of SAPD (no matter what their rank in the Bureau is), they must have approval of DB Commanding Officer or above - this is to ensure that the said persons have enough skills and willingness to execute supervisory duties out of their Bureau.

Detective II+ still remains as a supervisory position within the Bureau though (such as Team Leader in S.W.A.T.).

Effective from 02/10/2023 until further notice.

ADMINISTRATIVE DECREE #0008

---

This administrative decree serves a purpose for eligibility of San Andreas Police Department's police officers to join Federal Bureau of Investigation's Hostage Rescue Team while actively being a part of SAPD.

Following a thorough analysis of our internal procedures, it has been decided that SAPD personnel cannot continue to hold official positions in the San Andreas Police Department while actively participating in the FBI HRT. The integrity, privacy, and operational efficacy of the FBI and SAPD are the major considerations in this choice.

Thus, with immediate effect, any member of the SAPD who wishes to work for the FBI as a CID or HRT must leave their existing role in the San Andreas Police Department in order to begin the application process with the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Our dedication to avoiding conflicts of interest, protecting the privacy of sensitive data, and maintaining the professionalism of our officers is reflected in this requirement.

(( This Administrative Decree is enforced In-Character and Out-of-Character both. You are not allowed to have a second character directly employed, or your primary character can not be employed under Federal Bureau of Investigation due to previous reasons that were stated. ))

ADMINISTRATIVE DECREE #0009

---

This administrative decree serves a purpose for eligibility of San Andreas Police Department's police officers to execute Undercover Operations and/or plain-clothes duties.

Going after a refurbishment on our department hierarchy recently, and after adding the following ranks: Police Detective I, Police Detective II, Police Detective III under the classification of Police Detectives, we have decided to remove our regular officers' access to such operations, as this will be exclusive for our detectives only.

This meaning that, any undercover operations, plain-clothes duties executed must be done by Police Detectives and Command Officers assigned to the Detective Bureau. This administrative decree also includes any gear that can be relatively included such as unmarked vehicles.

Thus, with immediate effect, all members of the San Andreas Police Department must abide with this new administrative decree and understand that previous Administrative Decree, numbered #0007 is no longer effective due to regulations being amended by this administrative decree.

Keep in mind that Staff Officers are exempt from this Administrative Decree.
This is no longer active as of 14th Sep, 2024 - Leadership take over
