Article 20 of Organic Law 15/1999, of 13 December, on the Protection of Personal Data, states that the creation, modification and deletion of the files of the Public Administrations may be made only by general provision published in the Official Journal of the State or Official Journal. The Spanish Constitution states in its article 104.1 that: "The security forces and bodies, under the government's dependence, will have as their mission to protect the free exercise of rights and freedoms and to guarantee citizen security." In the development of the aforementioned constitutional precept, the Organic Law 2/1986, of 13 March, of Forces and Security Corps, concretely these functions in Articles 11 and 12. For its part, Article 23.3 of Law 6/1997, of 14 April, of the Organization and the Functioning of the General Administration of the State, attributes to the Delegates of the Government in the Autonomous Communities the function of protecting the free exercise of the rights and freedoms and guarantee citizen security, through the Subdelegates of the Government and the State Security Forces and Corps, whose leadership will be the responsibility of the Government Delegate, who will exercise the powers of the State in this subject, under the functional dependence of the Ministry of the Interior. Article 31 of Organic Law 1/2004, of 28 December, of measures of comprehensive protection against gender-based violence, expressly attributes to the Security Forces and Forces the control of the enforcement of protective measures against women. victims adopted by the judicial bodies. The same Article 31 lays down the obligation for all police bodies to act in accordance with the provisions of the " Protocol on the Action of the Forces and the Security and Coordination Bodies with the Judicial Bodies for the Protection of Victims of Domestic and Gender Violence. " This Protocol-which was approved by the National Commission for the Implementation of the Courts of Violence on Women and by the National Commission for the Coordination of the Judicial Police, on 8 and 28 June 2005, respectively-provides that Law enforcement officers must carry out an assessment of the objective risk that is present at each moment and take the protective measures corresponding to that assessment:

(a) from the moment they have knowledge of facts that may be the constitutive of criminal offence in the field of domestic and gender violence, and

(b) after receipt of the communication of the judgment in which a protection measure is adopted.

Finally, article 32.2 of the aforementioned law establishes the duty of the public authorities to articulate action protocols that ensure a comprehensive and comprehensive performance of the different administrations and services involved in the prevention, assistance and prosecution of acts of gender-based violence.

The seriousness and persistence of the violations committed in the family sphere, and more specifically in the case of gender-based violence, makes it necessary to deepen the protection measures for the victims, through a coordinated by the institutions obliged to protect them, in order to prevent and avoid risks of further aggression. To this end, it is essential to have a register with the information to enable an individual monitoring of the circumstances of these victims and of the evolution of the risk they are encountered, in order to implement the adequate protection for your risk situation at any time. One of the factors that most significantly affect the aggravation of this objective risk is, precisely, the variation of the penitentiary situation of the authors of this type of criminal act, when it involves the granting of permits or the (conditional or final) release of the inmates who are subject to a judicial removal or prohibition of communication with the victim, and it is therefore necessary to have the information provided in this respect by the Directorate-General for Prison Institutions. Article 27 of Royal Decree 515/2005 of 6 May laying down the conditions for the execution of the penalties for work for the benefit of the community and for the permanent location of certain security measures, as well as the suspension of the execution of the custodial sentences-in accordance with the provisions of article 32.2 of the Organic Law 1/2004, of December 28-, states that: " In cases where any of the penalties or measures provided for in this Royal Decree, be imposed by facts related to gender-based violence, in order to guarantee the protection of the victims, the prison social services will coordinate their actions with the Forces and the Security Corps, the Offices of Assistance to the Victims and the Special Delegation of the Government against the Violence on Women ". In line with the stated need to improve the effectiveness in the protection of victims and in the development of Articles 31 and 32.2 of Organic Law 1/2004 of 28 December 2006, the Council of Ministers of 15 December 2006 approved the "Plan of Action".
