On the Organisation of the State Police

Summary/Abstract: The article deals with the development of the legal regulation, more precisely with the statutory regulation, of the organization of the State Police (of the Czech Republic). The first part of the article gives an outline of the development of the legal regulation of State Police between 1947 and 1989. A more detailed account is then given to the development of the organization of the State Police after the serious political changes at the end of 1989. The second part of the paper is focused on the adoption of the Act No. 283/1991 Sb., on the Police of the Czech Republic, and its regulations regarding the organization of the State Police until its abolition in 2008. This section also recalls the debate on the new law on the State Police, which was prepared in 2000, but has not been submitted to Parliament. The new legislation, implemented by Act No. 273/2008 Sb., on the Police of the Czech Republic, is analyzed in terms of the organization of the Police in the third part of the paper. The conclusion contains an assessment of the current legislation, inter alia, in terms of access to information on the organization of the Police.
