The primer discusses the important provisions of various
administrative orders of the Philippine’s Department of Environment
and Natural Resources. It answers basic and frequently asked
questions about the administrative procedure for violations in
protected areas (PAs). It describes in detail the Philippine legal
process from apprehension, seizure, confiscation to the disposition
of items subject of illegal activities in PAs. It also includes
remedies available to offenders to alert park rangers and
community-based law enforcers of possible pitfalls that might derail
their noble actions.
The primer expects
to enrich the knowledge and skills of field officers and
community-based paralegals in PAs. It also expects that the users
enrich this work by giving suggestions and asking more practical
questions arising from their experiences in law enforcement.
