About this document

UK Law Enforcement Structure and Principles by Camilla H is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Law enforcement in the UK is organized separately for England and Wales, Northern Ireland, and Scotland, with most enforcement carried out by regional police services within those jurisdictions. These regional services are supplemented by UK-wide agencies like the National Crime Agency. Police officers have certain powers to protect life and property, keep the peace, and prevent and detect crime, exercising these powers with the implicit consent of the public in a model of "policing by consent."
