Additionally, the law stipulates that the police will be required to document every use of a water cannon.</p><p>According to the amendment to the Police Ordinance, the footage recorded from the vehicle must include both video and audio and be preserved for three years. In cases where the police believe that releasing the footage could compromise an investigation, national security, or public safety, they may petition the court to delay its transfer. Currently, any individual injured by a water cannon during a protest is entitled to request the footage from the police and receive it within seven days.
