The Hong Kong Police Force is the police department of Hong Kong. Formed in 1844 with a strength of 35, the force evolved from an extremely broad-based role (with responsibilities that included fire-fighting, prisons, customs and immigration), to that of a traditional police service, with mostly civic responsibilities - although the force is still heavily committed to countering illegal immigration and smuggling. As of 28 February 2007, the force has a strength of 27,375, as well as 4,885 civilian employees. The force was granted Royal Charter by Queen Elizabeth II in 1969 and renamed Royal Hong Kong Police until the handover in 1997. The police in Hong Kong operate under local legislations and Hong Kong Basic Law and within the traditional constabulary concept of preserving life and property, preventing and detecting crime and keeping the peace. For times of emergency the force has a paramilitary capability. The Commissioner of Police reports to the Secretary for Security, who is responsible for all disciplined services in Hong Kong.
