According to police chief Renatas Požėla, a return to officer specialization is being considered.
“Experiments are currently being carried out at various police stations, certain tasks have been formulated, certain activity models have been proposed: creating specializations, giving people more time for specific investigations, so that certain officers are more proactive, is that is, work proactively with people in specific areas. ” , to try to prevent criminal acts, “the head of the police commission told journalists at Seimas on Wednesday after the meeting of the National Security and Defense Committee.
“Much of this, when we look at how the experiment ended, what its conclusions are, may be the beginning of some adjustments to the reform that has already taken place,” he said.
If it weren’t for quarantine, we would have had results by the summer, and maybe decisions would have been made. We now hope to finish the experiments in the fall.
According to R.Požėla, the experiment takes place in Klaipėda city, Plung Pl district, Šiauliai city and district, and Šakiai district police stations.
“If it weren’t for quarantine, we would have had results by the summer already, maybe decisions would have been made.” Now we hope to finish the experiments in the fall, “said R. Požėla.
A few years ago, to increase the number of patrol officers, Police Department management instructed officers who had previously performed other functions on the streets.
“I am not saying that the reform has not worked, the decisions have been made in principle, the police officer has become more universal, but the era dictates new challenges, and it is natural that within two or three years some changes are needed “Požėla said Wednesday.
According to him, the consolidation of the ten police stations of the county police headquarters in five districts should also contribute to a better organization of work, thus adapting to the prosecution system.
“The manager will have greater capabilities, greater opportunities to operate,” said R. Požėla.
“The tragic event in Telšiai County (when a police officer was shot dead – BNS) in a sense shows that our small counties, sometimes for objective and subjective reasons, sometimes do not fully comply or can perform the functions and assigned tasks. By consolidating the divisions, there are opportunities to operate more efficiently, “he added.
According to the country’s chief of police, the task force is also preparing proposals on how to restructure the work of the Police Department.
“The divisions will also expand and the number of outstanding people will decrease,” said R. Požėla.
Presenting the public security situation in a closed session of the Seimas committee on Wednesday, the general police commissioner said the recent crisis and quarantine had highlighted troubling things.
“It just caught our eye then. We looked at the electronic space, we saw various speeches, comments, certain initiatives. We also saw this during the 2008 crisis, some people lost their jobs, then there was more uncertainty about tomorrow, not everyone dealt with their psychological things. Today we also see such things, “said the official.
