Police

The police are being pulled in several different directions at the moment. The current geopolitical situation has made it necessary to step up preparedness. At the same time, the police are in talks with the Ministry of the Interior over a new plan to balance the organisation’s operations and finances and to cut costs in the short-term.

The police carried out a nationwide blasting site control campaign from 5 to 11 September 2022, during which a total of 253 sites were inspected in the operating areas of various police departments. A total of 22 admonitions and one notification leading to measures were issued. One penal order was issued for the violation of regulations on the transportation of explosives.
