The government wants to strengthen the Icelandic police force in several ways: increasing the number of drug squad officers; installing surveillance cameras in Reykjavik; and strengthening the special weapons and tactics team. The government's goals for the police include developing law and order, improving citizen services, increasing border control to protect public safety, and stronger drug policing. The Icelandic police system is closely controlled by the government, with the national commissioner of police overseeing 15 police districts and being appointed by the minister of justice.
