  Article 1-The Police Code  
1.1 The Civil Law of Arabian-Union  
  The Police Law of Arabian-Union consists of this present Code. All existing and new laws providing for police responsibility are subject to inclusion in the present Code.
 
  The present Code is granted authority by Article 155 of the Charter of Arabian-Union and therefore may be taken as a legitimate element of the body of the Charter.
 
1.2 Structure of the Police Code
 
  The Police Code is structured into chapters, which in turn are divided into articles and then one or more clauses within each article.
 
  The major chapters of the Police Code are:
 
  1. Introductory provisions
2. Police standards and social objectives
3. Code of conduct
4. Police power and rights
5. Police responsibility
6. Police integrity, values and honor
7. Police skills, competency and eligibility
8. Police equipment and support systems
9. Police investigations
10. Police operating procedures
 
  While an article may belong to a particular chapter, the numbering of all articles is consecutive so that the entire body of articles of the Police Code may be read as one, with or without the chapter headings.
