Yang notes that before presenting evidence at a criminal prosecution, police authorities must follow strict procedures regarding the viewing, management and disposal of surveillance tapes according to the Personal Data Protection Act and the Police Authority Enforcement Act. However, management of civilian and community controlled monitoring systems is in the hands of public and private institutions, so at present it remains unregulated by statutory law.
楊肇元指出，在成為刑事訴訟證據之前，各警察機關依據「個資法」和「警察職權行使法」，對於監視器的調閱申請、管理及銷毀有一套嚴格的管理辦法，但民政、社政系統的監視紀錄掌控在各公私立機構手中，目前的確處於無法可管的狀態。
