Dear Mr. Simon:
This is in reference to your request lodged through the eFOI portal (www.foi.gov.ph) on February 2, 2025, regarding data of San Pablo City Jail.
Please be informed that, in adherence to Executive Order No. 2, s. 2016, we can provide only the jail population of San Pablo City Jail (Please see attached). However, details regarding the number of personnel/officers, as well as the operational costs (including salary, water, electricity, and other expenditures), fall under exceptions to the right to access information, as they involve internal agency operations and security-sensitive information that may compromise institutional operations.
