Regional Units (No Abbreviation)[edit]

The ten regional units (Noord-Nederland, Oost-Nederland, Midden-Nederland, Noord-Holland, Amsterdam, Den Haag, Rotterdam, Zeeland West-Brabant, Oost-Brabant, Limburg) (North-Netherlands, East-Netherlands, Central-Netherlands, North-Holland, Amsterdam, the Hague, Rotterdam, Zeeland West-Brabant, Oost-Brabant, Limburg) consist of the unit staff, five services, and districts including basis teams (one or two stations). The politiechef (police chief) directs the unit. He is responsible for all policing in the region.



Every regionale eenheid (regional unit) is led by a unitchef (unit chief), a Hoofdcommissaris (Chief Commissioner) who conducts the day-to-day police force management. Decisions about the principal law enforcement policies are made by a regional board, the so-called Driehoek (triangle) whose chairman is the eenheidsbeheerder (unit manager). The eenheidsbeheerder is usually the mayor of the largest municipality in the region. The other board members of the Driehoek are the unit chief and the local chief prosecutor.

A region consists of several districts, each having a district chief. Each district consists of a number of local units, called basiseenheden (basic units) or teams.

The "police strength", the number of constables and other police employees in a region is determined by the number of inhabitants and the amount of crime in the region. So the smallest force counts about 300 police officers, while the largest one counts more than 5,000 police employees. There are about 55,000 police employees serving in the Netherlands.

Selected police officers may also be deployed in a riot police mobile unit. Mobile units are called in to deal with serious public order offences. Each police region has one or more units on stand-by for a total of 45 mobile units nationwide, each of which has about 50 members (including middle-ranking and senior officers). Nine units have also been trained to respond to incidents on maritime vessels. The mobile unit also incorporates plain clothes units known as 'aanhoudingseenheden'. These groups target specific suspects of public order offenses.
