  • The AFP Is Well Informed of the Criminal Practices and Illicit Trading Taking Place on the Dark Web
    The AFP is well informed of the criminal practices and illicit trading taking place on the dark web. We are working with our partners to combat all forms of technology-enabled crime. In recent years there has been a steady increase in the number of seizures of all drug types via the mail system detected at the Australian border. High frequency-low volume importations such as ones through our mail system pose a considerable cumulative threat. These shipments contribute towards supplying the Australian market and exacerbate social problems within Australia associated with drug harm. Seizing these smaller importations can impact on disrupting the drug trade. The AFP and other Australian law enforcement agencies are well aware of this method of drug importation and are committed to targeting and combating it. The AFP works alongside its partner agencies on this matter, including Border Force and state and territory police. While it is not an offence to access websites that provide access to sellers of illegal substances, it is an offence to import or attempt to import a border controlled drug including synthetic drugs into Australia purchased from such a website. Offenders should be aware that if they seek to import illicit and synthetic drugs they will be subject of law enforcement scrutiny and investigation. Recently, a national co-ordinated policing campaign focused on detecting drugs being distributed via the Australian postal service saw a total of 62 illicit drugs or illegally obtained prescription medications seized by police. Operation Vitreus was co-ordinated by the National Methylamphetamine Strategy Group, which is currently lead by SA Police (SAPOL), but involved all State and Territory police agencies, working in conjunction with the Australian Federal Police, Australian Border Force (ABF), the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission and AUSTRAC.

  • Border Violence Prevention Council FACT SHEET
    Border Violence Prevention Council FACT SHEET Building on the principles of co-responsibility for and co-management of our shared border espoused in coordination mechanisms like the 21st Century Border Management Initiative and the High Level Economic Dialogue, the United States and Mexico created the Border Violence Prevention Council. The Council is co- led by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), the Secretariat of Foreign Relations (SRE) of Mexico, and the Federal Police of Mexico, and includes the participation of other U.S. Department of Homeland Security components, the U.S. Department of State, and the Secretariat of Governance of Mexico. The Border Violence Prevention Council is a policy-level decision making body that promotes initiatives aimed at preventing incidents of border violence through collaborative efforts, joint public engagement campaigns, increased transparency and information exchange, and the sharing of best practices. The Council has met four times, most recently on November 3, 2016, where we noted significant past accomplishments, including: Undertaking actions to increase the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s and CBP’s accountability, transparency, and notification regarding use of force cases. Increasing the understanding of use of force policies and officer training efforts in both countries, which included policy and technical discussions, exchanges of information and visits to each other’s enforcement training centers. Exchanging information on changes to relevant policies and procedures. Conducting joint community outreach and engagement initiatives between the 12 Consulates of Mexico located at the border, Mexico´s Federal Police, U.S. Customs and Border Protection including its component, the U.S.

As can be expected, the federative organisation of such states as Germany, Switzerland, the USA, India and Russia will be reflected in their police organisation, though the extremely decentralised approach of Switzerland with hardly any central man- agement structures can hardly serve as a paradigm of ‘the’ federal police organisation.

  • Germany 2020 Human Rights Report
    GERMANY 2020 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Germany is a constitutional democracy. Citizens choose their representatives periodically in free and fair multiparty elections. The lower chamber of the federal parliament (Bundestag) elects the chancellor as head of the federal government. The second legislative chamber, the Federal Council (Bundesrat), represents the 16 states at the federal level and is composed of members of the state governments. The country’s 16 states exercise considerable autonomy, including over law enforcement and education. Observers considered the national elections for the Bundestag in 2017 to have been free and fair, as were state elections in 2018, 2019, and 2020. Responsibility for internal and border security is shared by the police forces of the 16 states, the Federal Criminal Police Office, and the federal police. The states’ police forces report to their respective interior ministries; the federal police forces report to the Federal Ministry of the Interior. The Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution and the state offices for the protection of the constitution are responsible for gathering intelligence on threats to domestic order and other security functions. The Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution reports to the Federal Ministry of the Interior, and the state offices for the same function report to their respective ministries of the interior. Civilian authorities maintained effective control over security forces. Members of the security forces committed few abuses. Significant human rights issues included: crimes involving violence motivated by anti-Semitism and crimes involving violence targeting members of ethnic or religious minority groups motivated by Islamophobia or other forms of right-wing extremism.

Even though the number of forces has shrunk over the past decades, there are still 37 agencies in six out of nine provinces. Most of Austria’s major cities, including the Capital of Vienna, Graz, Linz, Salzburg or Innsbruck, are secured by the Federal Police. According to the Federal Constitution, municipal police departments must not be estab­ lished in a city with a Federal Police authority. Municipal police agencies are mostly found in medium sized cities or smaller towns and villages. Each municipal police service has between one and 45 employees and varies in terms of organization, equip­ GreGor WendA, ment, competencies, and availability.

  • Australian Law Enforcement
    Australian Law Enforcement In Australia, no one is above the law and all are subject to the law. This is called the rule of law. For the rule of law to be effective, it requires the law of the land to be known and followed by all citizens. An important component of maintaining Australia’s justice system is law enforcement, which ensures that everyone follows the law. Federal, state, and territory law enforcement services protect the community by preserving the peace, upholding the law, develop and run programs in crime prevention, aid in emergencies, and manage emergency incidents. Law enforcement agencies are subject and accountable to the law and have a responsibility to enforce legislation, which is passed through the different levels of governance in Australian society. Their origins began with the arrival of convicts on the First Fleet from England, back in 1788. And whilst the new settlement began as a penal colony, the evolution of the colony into a free society began developing as early as two weeks, when legal processes were put into effect to resolve any disputes and grievances that had arisen amongst the new inhabitants, including convicts. Australia's First Cops Were All Criminals Today, there are three main levels of law enforcement available in Australia which serves to protect citizens. They are: Federal State/Territory Local In addition to these levels, there are several other agencies that have powers to enforce Australian law in specific areas. Some examples include: o Australian Border Force - customs and immigration o Australian Defence Force – military police o Australian Securities and Intelligence Organisation – national security Each level has its own requirements and expectations, which all citizens in society are expected to know and follow.

  • Aviation Security Frankfurt Airport PDF, 1 MB
    Aviation Security at Frankfurt Airport In Germany, aviation security is the responsibility of the state. The relevant legal framework is based on rules and regulations established by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the European Union (EU) as well as the German Aviation Security Act (hereinafter: LuftSiG). The LuftSiG establishes, among other things, the criteria for the access to airports’ security-restricted areas and their protection against unauthorized access. The EU and the relevant German public authorities issue guidelines for the control techniques and procedures to be employed. Furthermore, they are respon- sible for the quality assurance of all security measures. To that end, audits and inspections are carried out, as well as announced, unannounced, and discreet checks. The highest aviation security authority in Germany is the Federal Ministry of the Interior (BMI). In addition, the Federal Police (BPol), the Hessian Ministry of Economy, Transport, Urban and Regional Development (HMWEVL) and the Federal Aviation Office (LBA) have direct supervisory roles. Some of the control and security measures are handled by private companies, operating in accordance with and under the control of the responsible supervisory authority. Only trained staff that are approved by the authorities are allowed to perform these duties. Who is responsible? Who implements the measures? BMI + + The airport operator is responsible for controlling Airlines are legally required to secure the areas access to the airport’s security-restricted area by assigned to them, where they are responsible BPol employees, vehicles and any goods carried by for controlling access to any security-restric- them.

Pursuing Health as Foreign Policy: The Case of China YANZHONG HUANG* I. INTRODUCTION: HEALTH, FOREIGN POLICY, AND CHINA "Health is today a growing concern in foreign policy," the Director- General of the World Health Organization (WHO) announced with the foreign ministers of Norway and France in an editorial last year.1 Although health has long been a foreign policy issue, 2 health was historically separate from foreign policy: the study and practice of foreign policy neglected public health, and public health was predominantly a domestic policy concern.3 It was not until the 1980s that an unprecedented collision of the worlds of health and foreign policy began to occur. Events and developments in the political and epidemiological world-globalization, the rise of infectious disease, and the end of the Cold War-highlighted the importance of health as a key element of development and security policy.
