Forum | Operational Directions on Non-Disclosure of Investigation | Forum on the Implementation of the New Regulations
Last edited: 2026-07-27
The newly amended Operational Directions on Non-Disclosure of Investigation officially takes effect on June 15 of this year. The new regulations introduce new provisions regarding the investigative procedures or content that may be moderately disclosed during an investigation, as well as the scope of investigative information that is strictly prohibited from being disclosed.
The new regulations require all investigative agencies to appoint a "spokesperson," establish "interview-restricted zones" and "review committees," and mandate that investigative agencies periodically publish review reports along with disciplinary actions taken against violators for public inspection.
The Taipei Bar Association and the Judicial Reform Foundation have long monitored the implementation of the principle of "non-disclosure of investigation" and observed public concerns following the promulgation of the new regulations. To give various sectors a preliminary understanding of the differences between the old and new regulations, the purpose of the amendments, and the potential issues that may arise during future implementation, this forum is being held. It invites legal practitioners and media workers for multi-party exchanges in order to dispel doubts from all sectors and gather recommendations on the new regulations, thereby facilitating subsequent monitoring and implementation work.
