Popis: The first chapter aims at delivering a brief introduction to the institutional features of police oversight mechanisms in these three jurisdictions. At the outset, the relevant scholarly debate would be drawn into the content, addressing the frequently asked questions in studying policing oversight. We will compare the socio-political contexts, legal system, and policing system; then moving to the institutional design of the police oversight mechanisms in each jurisdiction. We would explain the duties and division of labour within the police oversight mechanism of respective jurisdiction.
