  1. PRESENTATION ON THE STATUS / TIMEFRAMES / COSTS OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS IN SUPPORT OF THE CRIMINAL LAW (FORENSIC PROCEDURES) AMENDMENT BILL Compiled by: * Division: Technology Management Services, South African Police Service * Integrated Justice system * SITA

  2. Current Status • Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) implemented STRLAB (reference to presentation by Maj-General Shezi of 3 June 2013) • Currently testing approximately 80,000 DNA samples per annum • 900 persons of interest were linked thorough DNA to cases • 800 different cases were linked to each other through DNA evidence where no other evidence previously existed • Criminal Law (Forensic Procedures) Amendment Bill B09-2013 • The DNA Bill, seeks to address gaps in our current legislation dealing with the collection, storage and use of DNA evidence and to provide for the expansion and administration of a National Forensic DNA database (NFDD)

  3. Impact of the DNA Bill on JCPS Cluster Information Technology Systems • SAPS: • Expansion of analysis capacity from approximately 80000 to 250000 samples per annum • Sample registration at point of arrest and integration into integrated booking and exhibit management • Exhibit registration of samples from crime scenes linked to exhibit management • Creation of DNA database • Migration of old DNA records from STRLab to DNA database • Integration of DNA database to SAPS Legacy Systems • DOJ&CD: • Case postponement and outcome information to be integrated to SAPS to enable administration and expungement of records

  4. Impact of the DNA Bill on JCPS Cluster Information Technology Systems (cont.) • DCS: • Remand Offender Detainee System release notifications to be integrated to SAPS (IJS Person Tracking) • IJS: • Integration for Person Identity information sharing once departmental system readiness achieved

  5. JCPS Cluster Information Technology Systems Readiness for Bill • SAPS: • Capacity Expansion for DNA testing: Procured DNA analysis systems • Creation of DNA database (NFDD): SAPS/SITA Tender in preparation, goal to be awarded by June 2014. Old STRLab records will be migrated to NFDD once system has been commissioned. • Arrestee Samples: Initially a manual process for registration of arrestee samples, automation of registration under consideration in integrated booking process once NFDD established. Will use STRLab until new system implemented. • Crime Scene Samples: electronic registration of crime scene samples in development, planned to be ready by March 2014. • Integration of NFDD to SAPS Legacy Systems: To be started once NFDD established.

  6. JCPS Cluster Information Technology Systems Readiness for Bill (cont.) • DOJ&CD: • Case postponement and outcome information integrations: DOJ&CD Integrated Case Management System in development (SITA) to provide for electronic capture of case outcomes (FY’2014/15). Once completed, information will be integrated via the IJS to SAPS Systems. • DCS: • Remand Offender Detainee System: RDOMS project on hold. Once project reinitiated, integration planning will commence. • IJS: • Integration hub established and integrated between SAPS and DOJ&CD. Not yet integrated to DCS (RDOMS dependency). Additional integrations to be added once underlying departmental systems are ready.
