14 October 2019 Dear Ms. Danessa Lorenz Lopega, You requested for information on the following: “(1) Number of reported child abuse in Philippines for the year 2017-2018; and (2) Top 10 towns with the most number of reported child abuse in the country.” Unfortunately, the DSWD only has information on abused children residing in its centers and institutions and those who are community-based served by the DSWD. Thus, we shall partially grant your request and we shall refer your request with respect to this matter to the proper DSWD office. Under Republic Act 10625 (the “Philippine Statistical Act of 2013”), the Philippine Statistics Authority is the government agency responsible for preparing and conducting periodic censuses on population, housing, agriculture, fisheries, business, industry and other sectors of the economy. The PSA may have the complete data. Hence, you may wish to direct your request to the PSA by submitting a request to the PSA via this portal. You may also contact the PSA by telephone at 462-6600 locals 839, 833 and 834 or via email at [email protected]. For crimes such as abuse of children, the Philippine National Police (PNP) may also have the data you need. Hence, you may also wish to direct your request to the PNP by submitting a request via this eFOI portal. Alternatively, you may try to contact the PNP by telephone at 723-0401. Very Truly Yours, Atty. Maria Cassandra M. Urbiztondo FOI Decision Maker
