Nationalizing the Police System has Failed

Two years after restructuring the regional police forces into a national unit, the project is in poor state.  There is a shortage of competent managers, the computer system is not functioning well, and the percentage of sick leave has increased. The costs of the reorganization have doubled from original estimates to 460 million euro.  In the initial period after the restructuring, the percentage of cases which have been solved also declined.
