I would appreciate it if all delegates took the time to review and possibly endorse my proposal. It shall further security and stability in all member nations of the UN, while recognising political freedoms and civil rights.

Transgression

A resolution to improve world security by boosting police and military budgets.

Category: International Security
Strength: Significant
Proposed by: PeopleThings

Description: Peoplethings resolves:

1. To mobilize all workers and communities in the fight against all crimes especially domestic violence, violence against women, children and the aged.

2. Campaign for a speedy transformation of the police and justice system. This would include engaging all ministries (National and Provincial) of Safety and Security and the Parliamentary portfolio committees dealing with safety and security matters.

3. While acknowledging Governments initiative in combating corruption within the justice and police systems, we must campaign around the Following:

1. Government must intensify its efforts and include organized formations of civil society especially affected sectors of labor.

2. To expose and report those corrupt police who are in cahoots with criminals as well as others who assist in the perpetration of crime.

3. To work with the independent complaints Directorate to ensure that policemen involved in corruption are dealt with and discharged from the service.

4. Those harsher penalties are contemplated for those who betray community trust.

4. We welcome the Bill tightening bail conditions for certain crimes and insist on its speedy implementation.

5. To identify specific underlying socio-economic problems in our society, and implementing the required plan of action to remedy these in line with other socio-economic initiatives. To further urge Government and Business to create job opportunities to alleviate crime linked poverty.

6. To input in the process of formulating legislation which will assist the Government to regulate private security companies.

7. That we commit ourselves as the UN to participate in all attempts directed against crime. As part of this, we should:

1. Encourage all UN members to participate in building grass root structures like the Community Policing Forums and support those police who are dedicated in fighting crime. The UN should also encourage all members to enroll as police reservists.

2. To ensure that these dedicated policemen are remunerated fairly.

3. To discourage members of the communities from buying stolen goods. Hasher penalties should be imposed for this offence.

8. Further measures should include:

1. The close monitoring and deployment of both logistical and human resources to ensure service delivery particularly to crime-ridden areas, sectors and disadvantaged areas.

2. Ensuring integration of police service with other services.

3. The Prisoners must be rehabilitated and prisons must no longer be the universities of crime. Criminals arrested by police should keep beyond bars and must not be allowed to walk out of prisons. The Correctional Services must avoid giving impression that crime pays by taking sick or wounded criminals to the high class private clinic whilst their victims are treated in the public hospitals.

9. Peoplethings further resolves that:

1. Special attention should be placed on;
*Exposing and reporting to the police, domestic violence within our communities.
*Combating child abuse, rape and armed robberies.
*Smash organized crime syndicates by active community involvement and the development of a specific action plan in this regard, especially where syndicates are active in the workplace.
*Exposing and combating white collar crime.
*Witness protection system must be developed as mechanism of encouraging crime reporting by communities

I would consider it but for another 24 hours I'm as a mortal member with no uber-cool delegate powers.
