Police Service of Northern Ireland

The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) is responsible for maintaining law and order across Northern Ireland. Its duties include crime prevention, investigation, traffic control, and community engagement. Formed in 2001, the PSNI replaced the Royal Ulster Constabulary to promote a more community-focused approach, with officers trained to serve all residents fairly. It operates under a government framework and works alongside other agencies to ensure safety, uphold justice, and foster trust among diverse communities in Northern Ireland.
