". – That will need to be determined case-by-case and situation-by-situation. Let me explain one of the problems we have in providing the policing capacity which is needed.
What we are looking for is not a conventional community police officer. What we require is a trained officer – man or woman – who is capable of the traditional policing functions of detection, who is capable of providing community policing, and capable, from time to time, of the sort of paramilitary policing which is needed, for example, in parts of the West Balkans.
In the country I know best there are very few police forces who have that sort of capacity, which includes the regular use of arms. The police service in Northern Ireland is an example of a service which has that sort of all-round capacity. That is one reason why it is difficult to provide exactly what is required, but whether or not arms will always be necessary will depend on the circumstances. I hope that the success of policing will mean that arms, increasingly, are not required."@en1
