RECOMMENDATIONS:
Based on this Report’s findings and conclusions, the Board of Inquiry (BOI) recommends the following:
1. Where the fact of this Report indicate possible violations of existing laws and regulations, appropriate government agencies should pursue the investigation of the Mamasapano incident to determine the criminal and/or administrative liabilities of relevant government officials, the MILF and other indiciduals.
2. The AFP and the PNP, in coordination with OPAPP, should immediately review, clarify and strengthen the Joint AFP/PNP Operational Guidelines for Ad Hoc Hoint Action Group especially in the area of coordination during Law Enforcement Operations (LEO) against HVTs.
3. The AFP and the PNP should jointly review related provisions of their respective written manuals and protocols to synchronize, reconcile and instutionalize inter-operability not only between these two sgencies but also with other relevant government agencies. The National Crisis Management Core Manual (NCMC) Manual) could be one of the essential references.
4. Crisis management simulation exercises (similar to fire and earthquake drills) should be regularly conducted among key players incuding local government units particaularly in conflict prone araes.
5. The PNP should formally create and institutionalize a permanent office to orchestrate and synchronize institutional responses to various situation such as the peace process in Mindanao and other related situations. The understaffed and ad hoc arrangement provided by the existing PNP Focal Team on the Peace Process (FTPP) and the recent designation of a senior police official in AHJAG are examples of usual short-term solutions which do not appear to be sufficient.
6. The PNP should review its Police Operational Procedures to cover operations similar to Oplan Exodus and to clarify coordination issues.
7. The PNP should craft its own Mission Planning Manual and institutionalize its appication in PNP law enforcement operations.
8. The capabilities of SAF and other PNP Maneuver Units for Move, Shoot, Protech, Communicate and Close Air Support (CAS) should be enhanced.
9. The PNP should review its supply management system to ensure operational readiness of munitions and ordnance.
10. Cross-training between the PNP and the AFP pertaining to management and execution of military-type tactical operations should be institutionlized.
11. The PNP should immediately grant 1 rank promotion to all surviving members of the 84th Seaborne and PO2 Laian for their heroism and gallantry in action, posthumous promotion to the fallen 44 SAF commandos, and should give appropriate recognition to all other participating elements.
