자율방범대 제정법안의 쟁점과 입법방향에 관한 연구- 자치경찰제 도입과 연계하여 –

Abstract

The study analyzed the bills of the volunteer crime prevention and reviewed them in conjunction with the introduction of the municipal police system. Based on this, the study looked at the right direction for the legislation of the Voluntary Guardian Group. The results reviewed by the major issues are as follows : First, the voluntary guardian group should be organised in the box office and should report to the police chief. Second, appointment and dismissal of the voluntary guardian group must be made by the police chief. Third, education and supervision of the voluntary guardian group must be performed by the police chief. Fourth, establishment of conference or central association of voluntary crime prevention should be reconsidered as there is a possibility of formation of political interest group. Since the voluntary guardian group’s mission is to prevent crime, the Volunteer Crime Prevention Act should clarify that the voluntary crime prevention team has a character as a security assistance officer. Accordingly, the Volunteer Crime Prevention Act should include the supervision and regulations for police officers to systematically manage the voluntary guardian group. Then, if the municipal police system is introduced, the municipal police should supervise and regulate the voluntary guardian group.
