institution’s operations, with appropriate flexibility for
exceptional cases; and
➢Policy reviews are to ensure that the policies

address existing and emerging legislative,
administrative and operational needs of the PNP as

BPC
Relevance/ Are the PNP’s strategic direction in achievement of
Purpose the Mission and the inculcation of the Core Values

Currency Is the present situation/needs of the institution and

Clarity Are all users and stakeholders consistently
interpreting its content in similar ways? Does it
unambiguously communicate that which the
writer(s) intended? Does it articulate the institution’s
position in a manner that facilitates the development
of regulations and procedures?
Compliance What was the overall level of compliance with the
policy since implementation/previous review?
Where compliance was low, was this impacted by
the way the policy is written?
BPC
Adequacy and Are all instances and all stakeholders addressed,
Scope with sufficient provision for extraordinary cases?
How should the policy be amended to address
concerns that have arisen since its
implementation/previous review?
Consistency Are all instances and all stakeholders addressed,
with sufficient provision for extraordinary cases?
How should the policy be amended to address
concerns that have arisen since its
implementation/previous review?
