January 24, 2008 Notes of Atty. Debbie G. Dulay
Philippine Laws• National Laws protecting the Rights of
Children in Conflict with the Law (CICL) were limited.
• P.D. No. 603 or the Child and Youth Welfare Code spelled out special procedures in handling CICL
• Studies showed a gap in the implementation of the law by the Five Pillars of Justice - police, prosecutors, correction, courts and community
![Page 6: Juvenile Justice Welfare Act of 2006](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020217/552832e14a7959d33d8b462b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
January 24, 2008 Notes of Atty. Debbie G. Dulay
Still on Background …• Continued violations of child rights
were easily observed at the time of arrest and incarceration of a CICL.
• Formal education of child offenders who were enrolled at the time of arrest was disrupted. At the same time they also learn vices such as smoking, gambling, drinking and substance abuse from them.
