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

Famous quotes containing the words law and/or organisation:
“No. I am not the law in your mind,
the grandfather of watchfulness.
I am the law of your members,
the kindred of blackness and impulse.
See. Your hand shakes.
It is not palsy or booze.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
“It is because the body is a machine that education is possible. Education is the formation of habits, a superinducing of an artificial organisation upon the natural organisation of the body.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (18251895)
