Police Union Afraid of Reduction of Jobs

Gerrit van de Kamp, chairman of the police union ACP, says that the cost cuts of 100 million Euro in police expenses will lead to a reduction of 1,000-1,200 jobs in the police force. This will lead to less policemen in the streets as well and a deterioration in its ability to catch criminals. This is happening at a time when the government hopes to reduce criminality by 25%.
