Members at the SCS did not know what to complete in the 508(b) register, only after ICD intervention was the member clear on their duties. It is recommended that a members should be responsible for weekly checks of all Domestic Violence registers. Members at the station who have been trained in the Domestic Violence Act should train other members at the station. Members at the station urgently need training in executing their duties. 20/08/08.HermanusNon CompliantThe station was rated at 47 %. No form 1 or 11 not found on vehicles. The 508(b) was not available in CSC and once it was found it was incomplete. 508(a)’s incomplete. Protect orders and warrants are not filed and needs to be in a file.

It was observed that lower rank members are not adherering to instructions in terms of compliance, they should be dealt with at station level. Once I ascertained that members are not complying I went to HRM to find that currently there are no complaints against any member, hence there is non-compliance by members. The Commanders need to ensure strict compliance of the Domestic Violence Act. 17/09/08.BellvilleSubstantially Complaint The station was rated at 93%. It is recommended that the station should continue with compliance of the DV Act and keep up the good work as this station has the potential to achieve 100 % compliance. This station received Domestic Violence training from the PC’s office, Legal services, Discipline management, Crime prevention, Inspectorate and ICD in January all register has been put in place and updated, this station should be recommended for work well done.

The Domestic Violence Act and National Instruction was not in the CSC. A updated list of service providers needs to be place in vehicles. The station is compliant in terms of the Domestic Violence Act, however we cannot penalize them as they do not have sufficient females at the station. There are just a few technicalities which can be addressed by the Station Commissioner in order to obtain a better compliance. 18/09/08.CaledonNon Compliant The station was rated at 27%. No (a) could be found. 508(b) incomplete. List of service providers could not be found. Pocket books not maintained. Protect orders and warrants are not filed and needs to be in a file. Monthly procedures could not be found. The 508 (b) was in complete, the 508(a) which was handed to me was old and did not have any 2008 completed forms in it. It seems as the station is not taking Domestic Violence very serously, it is therefore recommended that the Station Commissioner became hand-on with regards to Domestic Violence and the compliance thereof. Although all our aspect of the station visit was not covered we would just like to bring the following to the attention of the Station Commissioner. 18/09/08.GrabouwFairly CompliantThe station was rated at 73%. A updated list of service provider needs to be placed in the CSC and on vehicles. 508(b) is incomplete. 508(a) not readily available in the CSC. OB is not thoroughly maintained.

It was also observed that suspect shoes and clothes were left in the pigeon holes in the CSC, all belonging of suspect should be booked into the SAP 13 and not lying in the CSC. Commander should ensure that this does not occur again. The station Commissioner needs to ensure that a list of service providers must be placed in the CSC and on all vehicles.

The station need to ensure that a copy of the National Instruction is placed in the CSC and stay there at all times.

No list of service provider in vehicles. Protect orders and warrant’s are lying loose. The 508(b) is incomplete, no pocket book entries are made my members, no OB numbers in the register and the outcome column is not completed. It transpired that one person is completing the 508(b) daily, I disagree with this. All members should be exposed to Domestic Violence incidence and how to complete the registers. Commanders need to ensure that all vehicles have updated list of service providers with them. The 508(b) are incomplete, sum don’t have dates and others don’t have reference numbers. File 39/4/2/3 could not be found. OB numbers not reflect in 508(b), members attending to the complainants does not complete the 508(b) hence therefore I did not look in the OB.

The 508(b) and the OB should be correctly completed by members attending to the Domestic Violence compliant. I am stressing the fact of members completing the 508(b) and OB as all members should know what registers to complete for a Domestic Violence Incident. I am herewith encouraging the Station Commissioner to expose all his member to Domestic Violence Incidence. The station Commissioner should also ensure that the file were the warrant of arrest are currently in should be marked clearly as file 39/4/3/1.
