This is the parliamentary question time for questions to the Mister of Law & Order.
Members of the Commons may question the Minister of Law & Order on any issue relating to his department. Each member is limited to one question per week.
This House recognises Lord Wallace Buttersworth as the Minister of Law & Order, and requests that he answers all questions posed to him.
This House recognises jhgilliatt as the Shadow Minister of Law & Order, and as such grants him the right to ask six questions per week.
The government may only be asked to answer one question at a time - no new questions may be submitted until the previous one has been answered. If the government does not answer, action may be taken by the speaker of the commons.
I therefore open this session with the following question:
Will the Minister of Law & Order please tell us of his department's aims for this session of parliament?
The Ostentian Federal Police is a progressive and multi-faceted law enforcement organisation, taking a strong lead in the fight against 21st century crime.
By employing the core principles of prevention, deterrence, partnerships and innovation, the OFP strives to build a more secure future for Ostentia and its global partners. Counter-terrorism and national security are major business priorities, underpinned by an unprecedented focus on strategy and investment.
So too is the OFP's commitment to international relations, which drives inter-agency collaboration and enables the fight against transnational crime to be taken to its source. At a national level, the OFP continues to work successfully with the Ostentian Government and key agencies on a range of counter-terrorism, crime-fighting and capacity building initiatives.
The OFP is a truly global policing agency, committed to staying one step ahead in a rapidly evolving criminal environment.
I thank the minister for his answer and open this session to the house.
