Wijziging van de Gemeentewet, de Wet wapens en munitie en de Politiewet 2012 (verruiming fouilleerbevoegdheden)

Stage submittedUpdated 5mo ago

This amendment proposes changes to the Municipalities Act, the Weapons and Ammunition Act, and the Police Act 2012. It aims to expand the legal authority of law enforcement to conduct searches and frisks (fouilleerbevoegdheden) to better prevent crime and enhance public safety. The changes primarily affect police officers and local security authorities, granting them broader powers to search individuals for weapons or dangerous objects in specific areas or situations.
