Horizontal Initiatives


Name of Horizontal Initiative: Investments to Combat the Criminal Use of Firearms (ICCUF)

Name of lead department: Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP)

Lead department program activity: Canadian Firearms Program

Start date of the Horizontal Initiative: May 2004

End date of the Horizontal Initiative: Ongoing

Total federal funding allocation (start to end date): Originally $49.9 million over 5 years, now extended indefinitely (see Total Allocations).

Description of the Horizontal Initiative (including funding agreement):

The overall aim of the ICCUF is to improve the national collection, analysis and sharing of firearms-related intelligence and information. Funding is distributed within the RCMP to the Canadian Firearms Program (CFP), Criminal Intelligence (CI), and the Criminal Intelligence Service Canada (CISC). The initiative also provides funds to Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) and Public Safety Canada (PSC).

The ICCUF directly supports the Government’s objective to tackle violent crime (especially firearms-related offences in relation to organized crime and street gangs), as outlined in the 2008 Speech from the Throne.

Shared outcomes:

Enhance the RCMP and CBSA’s capacity to gather, analyze, and share criminal intelligence in order to improve individual investigations, and to increase knowledge of the extent and patterns of smuggling and trafficking of firearms used in crime. This will support the development of an intelligence-led national enforcement strategy.

Governance structures:

A National Joint Management Team (NJMT) coordinates ICCUF efforts at the national headquarters level. ICCUF partners in the regions are encouraged to actively participate in regional JMT meetings or similar arrangements. Operational issues stemming from regional/local matters are raised to the NJMT when resolution at a national level is requested.

Planning Highlights:

Public safety in Canada continues to be threatened by the criminal use of firearms, many of which are smuggled into the country or otherwise illegally obtained. Analysis of trafficking patterns is improving as more information is collected from the field.

Law enforcement will be directly supported with high quality technical and investigative services and expertise from the CFP and its ICCUF partners in the investigation and prevention of firearms-related crimes. There will be a focus on analysis and sharing of firearms-related intelligence and information on smuggling and trafficking patterns.

Status Report on Transformational and Major Crown Projects


Description:

The Real Time Identification (RTID) Project is a re-engineering of systems and processes used for fingerprint identification, civil clearances and criminal records management. Its objective is to convert the current paper-based workflow to an electronic workflow, enabling the “real time” identification of fingerprints.

Fingerprints are submitted by police agencies to support the creation of criminal records or to search the criminal record repository during criminal investigations or civil security screening. RTID is streamlining these services and enabling an improved tracking of criminals by reducing identification turnaround times from weeks and months to hours and days.

The development of RTID should result in the following end state response times:

  • 72 hours for all civil 10-print searches (not linked to a criminal record) (improved from five months)
  • 24 hours for all latent fingerprint crime scene searches (improved from six weeks)
  • two hours for all refugee 10-print searches (improved from six weeks)
  • two hours for all criminal 10-print searches (improved from 10 weeks)

The RTID Project was initiated in 2004 and subdivided into two major phases for its execution:

  • Phase 1 modernized the civil clearance process, implemented a new Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS) and developed a new transaction manager – the NPS National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Server – permitting agencies to submit their fingerprint information electronically. Phase 1 was closed out in 2008 from an information technology (IT) perspective.
  • The scope for Phase 2 was reassessed and in March 2011 the RCMP received Treasury Board Effective Project Approval (EPA) for the realignment of the Phase 2 objectives. The scope of the realignment will provide benefits related to civil process enhancements and enable the electronic submission of criminal charges. Although the reduced scope will not support the electronic submission of criminal record updates and dispositions, it will provide a functional, stabilized system that can process current and future transaction volumes for both civil and criminal processes. It will also support other Crown initiatives such as Citizenship and Immigration Canada’s Temporary Resident Biometrics Project (TRBP). This scope is scheduled for completion in March 2013.

Project Phase:

The project is currently focusing on IT systems development to stabilize key components that support essential RCMP business outcomes and deliver an RTID solution that supports future Government of Canada needs, such as the TRBP at Citizenship and Immigration Canada.

The project has realigned its staff to better support the requirements of the TRBP. RCMP resources on RTID and TRBP have been integrated to ensure that the RTID solution addresses the needs of all business lines within the scope.

The project is progressing as planned and is expected to deliver on the approved scope, budget and schedule. Development and testing activities continue in support of Criminal Migration.
