Be it enacted by the Council as follows:
Section 1. Title 14 of the administrative code of the city of New York is amended by adding a new section 14-193 to read as follows:
�14-193 Missing persons reporting. a. No later than March 1, 2023, and annually thereafter, the commissioner shall submit to the mayor and the speaker of the council and shall post conspicuously on the department's website a report on missing persons. Such report shall include the following information for the preceding 10 calendar years:
1. The number of persons reported missing, in total and disaggregated by race, age and gender;
2. The number of persons reported missing, in total and disaggregated by precinct, and further disaggregated by race, age and gender;
3. The number of persons reported missing, disaggregated by the year in which the person was reported missing;
4. The percentage of missing persons cases that have been resolved by locating the missing person;
5. For missing persons cases that have been resolved by locating the missing person, the mean and median duration of time between the report of such missing person and their location; and
6. For missing persons cases that have been resolved by locating the missing person, the percentage of such cases in which the department has determined that the missing person has become a victim of sex trafficking or labor trafficking.
b. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this section, no report required by this section shall contain personally identifiable information.
c. The commissioner may promulgate such rules as may be necessary to implement the provisions of this section.
d. No information that is otherwise required to be reported pursuant to this section shall be reported in a manner that would violate any applicable provision of federal, state or local law relating to the privacy of victim information or that would interfere with law enforcement investigations or otherwise conflict with the interests of law enforcement. If a category contains between one and five individuals, or contains an amount that would allow another category that contains between one and five individuals to be deduced, the number shall be replaced with a symbol. A category that contains zero shall be reported as zero, unless such reporting would violate any applicable provision of federal, state or local law relating to the privacy of victim information.
� 2. This local law takes effect immediately.
