Law enforcement organisation is broad term, and while it includes law enforcement agencies, when used typically, is meant to specifically include organisations other than law enforcement agencies.
A law enforcement agency has powers, while other law enforcement organisations do not.
Law enforcement organisations other than law enforcement agencies may be:
- associations of personnel of law enforcement agencies at certain levels within their organisations
- law enforcement agency employee unions
- associations of law enforcement specialists, for example, forensic specialists, weapons and tactical specialists, evidence management and handling practitioners, specialist investigators such as fraud investigators or arson investigators
- community groups such as neighhbourhood watch groups
