The Law sets forth the principles and forms of participation by citizens in maintaining public order, the related responsibilities of the authorities and local self-governments, the procedures for the creation and activities of voluntary people’s guards, and regulates issues of legal and social protection for voluntary people’s guard members and non-staff police officers.
