Disclosure to investigating agencies may be authorised by regional heads with specified receipt, ID and record-keeping safeguards. Regional Authorities may, on receipt of written requests from investigating agencies, decide to hand over requested records without prior headquarters approval, subject to case facts. Records must be provided against a written request, under proper receipt recording the receiver's name and designation; a copy of the receiver's official ID must be retained and the RA should keep copies of records handed over. If the Head of Office objects to disclosure, a reasoned reference must be sent to the ECA Division at Headquarters.
