    SCOPE: the Police Grand-Ducale only. The force's own 'Votre Police' page in French, read directly. Supports the official French name, the Luxembourgish motto ZESUMME FIR IECH, and the force's own statement that it is a national service charged with ensuring internal security, that it contributes to the protection of individual freedoms and rights, and that it acts through preventive, proactive, dissuasive and repressive action. Site and station counts on the page describe an arrangement that changes and are not published.
