The Sandra Bland Law requires for police agencies in the state to not only collect data but also analyze it. The format being provided in this template is to be utilized so that the agency can provide an analysis on the data, as required by law. In addition, police agencies are required to perform audits on the quality of the data and ensure that the departmental racial profiling policies, are written in accordance to the Sandra Bland requirements. The data template being provided by LEMIT served exclusively to assist agencies in the collection of useful data that can be utilized to satisfy the additional requirements of the Sandra Bland Law.
