It is a human and operational force, a force for innovation and modernisation that has put its broad range of skills at the service of the public for two centuries. The préfecture de Police is called on to prevent and fight against a whole host of dangers: crime, public order disturbances, natural and technological disasters, urban hazards, dangers on the road, health hazards, terrorism, etc. The préfecture also seeks to provide a high-quality public service in the many other domains where it has responsibility, such as issuing administrative documents, controlling traffic and parking, and consumer protection. In addition, the préfecture undertakes assignments of unparalleled expertise via its scene-of-crime police, its forensic institute, its central laboratory and its psychiatric infirmary. In this brochure, we invite you to discover the key facets of this great institution that boasts nearly 43,400 men and women, including some 27,000 police officers and 8,200 fire fighters. Working together, they are committed daily to ensuring the safety and civil liberties of everyone living in, working in or visiting Paris and its suburbs. News and information... 29 3

GUARANTEEING public safety in the greater Paris area The public s main expectation is that they should enjoy the right to live in safety. Since the Greater Paris Police Force came into being on September 14, 2009, the préfecture de Police s area of jurisdiction has been extended to include the départements of Hauts-de-Seine (92), Seine-Saint-Denis (93) and Val-de-Marne (94). With nearly 27,000 police officers and 8,200 fire fighters for 6.4 million inhabitants, the Greater Paris Police Force covers two-thirds of the population of Ile-de- France and two-thirds of the area s crime. It has been possible to deploy a particularly aggressive crime-fighting and counter-terrorism strategy across this vast region by pooling resources, employing real-time incident Strengthening ties between the police and the public. analysis, improving information sharing and developing scene-of-crime police. The Greater Paris Community Safety Department (DSPAP), the Regional Criminal Investigation Department (DRPJ) and the préfecture de Police Intelligence Service (DRPP) work in unison in fighting all types of crime in greater Paris. For 2015, several operational priorities have been set among which are: increased protection of people through the Vigipirate plan and countering radicalisation, the fight against drug traffickers, the fight against theft and burglary and especially theft by deception against the elderly, the strengthening of protection for tourists, increasing road safety and the quality of the arrangements for receiving the public and victims. The use of scene-of-crime police and forensics has improved the crime clear-up rate. 6

Priority safety areas Re-appropriating public spaces is a priority for the préfecture de Police. Priority Safety Areas (ZSPs) were first introduced in 2012 with the aim of improving the safety and security of certain neighbourhoods that had been particularly affected by a deterioration in public law and order: robbery with violence, burglaries, street vendors setting up on a permanent basis in tourist areas, drug trafficking taking root at the entrances to blocks of flats or public gardens, prostitutes operating from the shared areas of apartment buildings, etc. Co-managed by the Prefect of Police, the Public Prosecutor and the Mayor of Paris, ZSPs allow greater coordination between the police, the state education authorities, other government departments, local authorities and voluntary groups. 8 Reclaiming the public space. In-depth action can be taken to combat all forms of crime, public nuisance and antisocial behaviour that has sometimes become entrenched in particular areas. Alongside the operational component, aimed at increasing the police presence on the ground assisted by fast-track court proceedings, a partnership component is dedicated to prevention projects designed to support schemes aimed at juveniles who are drifting and, in particular, young people who have dropped out of school.
