Abstract: The Prison Rape Elimination Act of 2003 (PREA) 42 U.S.C. § 15601 et seq was passed by Congress to address the concerns related to incidents of sexual abuse, assault, and rape of prisoners in Federal, State, and local prisons, as well as the lack of data available about such incidents. PREA requires that the Department of Justice (DOJ) develop and implement national standards for the detection, prevention, reduction, and punishment of prison rape and to increase the available data and information on the incidence of prison rape DHS's proposed regulation responds to and fulfills the President's directive by proposing comprehensive regulations for the detection, prevention, and reduction of sexual abuse and assault at DHS immigration detention and holding facilities. The information collection provisions within the proposed rule are new requirements which will require a new OMB Control No The new requirements will require covered facilities to retain certain specified information relating to sexual abuse and assault prevention planning, responsive planning, education and training, and investigations, and also to collect and retain certain specified information relating to allegations of sexual abuse and assault within the facility. The specified information is described in the proposed rule. The information collected is necessary to audit the compliance of the regulation and the incidence of sexual abuse and assault in DHS confinement facilities
