On October 12, Attorney General Ashcroft issued a memorandum to the heads of all departments and agencies that supersedes the Department of Justice FOIA policy memorandum that had been in effect since October 1993.

 Iraq: Memorandum on concerns relating to law and order - Amnesty International   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
Amnesty International recommends that the CPA amend Memorandum Number 3 to ensure that all criminal suspects have available a simple mechanism to be brought before a judicial authority promptly after arrest, to review the lawfulness and necessity of their detention, as well as their treatment, in accordance with international standards.
Whereas Section 30(13) of CPA Memorandum Number 2 provides that untried prisoners shall be allowed to inform their families immediately of their detention, criminal detainees held by the Coalition Forces are not so entitled.
Section 6(1)(e) of CPA Memorandum Number 3 enables detainees and their families to communicate through the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), but they are not entitled to receive family visits.

As with all other parts of the memorandum, the Statement of Facts cannot be put in final form until the other parts are at least in almost-final form.
Since a file memorandum is not an advocatory document, it is essential that all authorities be discussed.
