Gemeentelijke administratieve sancties: Invoering en uitvoering? Empirisch onderzoek van twee casussen.

Student thesis: Master's Thesis

Abstract

The law on municipal administrative sanctions (1999) gives the municipalities the possibility to add behaviours described as public nuisance to their police regulations and handle those offenses with administrative procedures. In an empirical research of two typical cases, we examine how this law is implemented, administered in practice and it's implications for the local safety policy. Two different models emerge, each with their own merits and disadvantages. We don't prefer one system above another, but argue that the board of alderman should be more involved, more specifically in the development of a coordinated and coherent integrated safety policy with the necessary attention to handle nuisance and/or incivilities in an integral approach.
