NRS-11160 | Charge books [Bungendore Police Station]

Police Rules of 1862 introduced the obligation to keep Charge books to record charges against prisoners, the nature of the charges, the names of those charged as well as any prisoner's property. (1)This series consists of Charge books from the Bungendore Police Station.Details pertaining to the charge itself included: the charge number; the date and hour of both the apprehension and the recording of the charge in the Charge book; personal details of the person being charged including name, address, date and place of birth, height, calling/occupation, and nationality; a short summary of the nature of the offence; the full name and address of the informant (usually the constable); any property found on the prisoner and the prisoner's property book reference number; signatures of the watch house keeper / Station Sergeant and the searching Constable; name of apprehending officer; signature of prosecutor; if the prisoner was bailed (date and hour, by whose order, amount of cash or surety, and bail form receipt number); if not bailed, the date and time of discharge from cells; how the case was disposed of including date and name of magistrate; and any remarks (usually details of discharge or if sent to another prison).In general entries became less detailed over time but the format of the entries and the type of information collected remained similar.From around 1950 annual single numbers began to be used for entries relating to charges though the year may have been recorded either before or after the single number (eg. 42/ 1, 2/54 or 87/3). From around the 1980s charge books for each police station were given volume numbers from 1 onwards, in chronological order.Hardcopy charge books were gradually replaced by online systems between approximately 1990 and 1994. The COPS system (Computerised Operational Policing System) was introduced in 1994, preceded by the Online Charging records system (1990-1995), an interim system used as a back-up for the implementation of COPS.Endnote1.

1862年《警察条例》（Police Rules）引入了保存指控簿（Charge books）的义务，用于记录针对囚犯的指控、指控性质、被指控者姓名及囚犯的所有财产信息。(1)本系列包含邦根多尔警察局（Bungendore Police Station）的指控簿。指控本身的相关细节包括：指控编号；逮捕时间及指控录入指控簿的日期与时刻；被指控者的个人信息（含姓名、住址、出生年月日及地点、身高、职业、国籍）；罪行性质的简要概述；举报人（通常为警员）的全名及住址；囚犯随身查获的财物及其财产簿参考编号；看守所长/警署警长（Station Sergeant）的签名；逮捕官员姓名；检察官签名；若囚犯获得保释，则需记录保释的日期与时刻、批准主体、保释金金额或担保人信息及保释收据编号；若未保释，则记录其出狱日期与时刻；案件处置方式（含裁判官姓名及处置日期）；以及其他备注信息（通常为释放详情或是否转送至其他监狱）。总体而言，尽管随着时间推移，条目内容的详细程度有所降低，但条目格式及所收集信息的类型仍保持一致。约自1950年起，指控相关条目开始采用年度单一编号，年份可标注于编号之前或之后（例如：42/1、2/54或87/3）。约自1980年代起，各警察局的指控簿按时间顺序分配卷号，编号从1开始递增。1990年至1994年间，纸质指控簿逐步被在线系统取代。1994年引入了COPS系统（计算机化警务操作系统，Computerised Operational Policing System），在此之前，1990-1995年间使用的在线指控记录系统（Online Charging records system）是COPS系统实施过程中的过渡备份系统。尾注1. 《警察条例》第360-361条及第369条，《新南威尔士州政府公报》（NSW Government Gazette）第49期，1862年3月1日，第498-499页。
