Wijziging van de Gemeentewet, de Wet wapens en munitie en de Politiewet 2012 (verruiming fouilleerbevoegdheden)
This legislative amendment proposes changes to the Municipalities Act, the Weapons and Ammunition Act, and the Police Act 2012. The goal is to expand the legal authority of law enforcement to perform searches and frisks (fouilleerbevoegdheden) to better ensure public safety and prevent crime. The changes primarily affect police officers and citizens in public spaces. By broadening the legal grounds for searches, law enforcement may gain more flexibility in detecting illegal weapons and dangerous items.
