Defense Department, Office of the Secretary
Official abstract: In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, the DoD is establishing a new system of records titled, Abuse Incident Reporting System, DPR 49. This system of records is being established to facilitate the uniform identification, monitoring, and tracking of the entire life cycle of cases of child abuse/neglect and domestic abuse across the Department. Records maintained within the system will also support the analysis of the scope of actions taken for each reported incident of child abuse/neglect and domestic abuse, types of abuse, and information about victims and alleged abusers to identify emerging trends and develop changes in policy to address child abuse/neglect and domestic abuse.
