Дайтекраткоеизложениесодержаниятекста TEXTB. Modern Police Force of the United Kingdom Most countries have a national police force which is controlled by the Central Government. Great Britain has no national police force, although police policy is governed by the central Government’s Home Office. Instead there is a separate police force for each of 52 areas into which the country is divided. Each has a police authority – a committee of local county councilors and magistrates. Outside London most counties (regions in Scotland) have their own police forces, though in the interests of efficiency several have combined forces. The policing of London is in the hands of the Metropolitan Police Force, with the headquarter in New Scotland Yard, and the City of London Force. The duties of the police forces in UK include the provision of policing at major airports (Heathrow, Gatwick etc) but the police carry no responsibility for running prisons, for immigration or for customs excise duties. The duties and responsibilities of police are the following: the protection of life and property the prevention of crimes and the detection of offenders the preservation of public tranquility. The Home Secretary and the Secretaries of State for Scotland and Northern Ireland approve the appointment of chief, deputy and assistant of chief constables, and may require a police authority to retire a chef constable in the interests of efficiency. They can make regulations covering such matters as police ranks, qualification for appointment, promotion and retirement, etc. Every force has its Crime Investigation Department staffed by experienced detectives. There is also a traffic division which operates road patrol units. At the heart of most police stations there is the control room equipped with high-tech computers and radio devices. |
