Statute overview

About this statute

The Ministry of the Interior oversees and supervises the police sector, the Police Board is the top police authority, and the ministry may set regional police administrative authorities by regulation. The provision says there are police-related delegations connected to the Ministry of the Interior and a police unit, and there may be delegations connected to the National Police Board. Polisstyrelsen must manage and supervise police operations under guidance from the Ministry of the Interior; the police chief and certain police units must also report specified matters, and the police chief may take over certain individual internal cases. The local police is organized by district, and the police institution must provide citizen services equally and at the same quality within the district. The Helsinki Police Department has special tasks, and the Police Board decides more specifically which matters belong to those tasks.
