The paper examines the goal settings for the police force at national and regional levels based on an analytical framework consisting of four criteria. The four criteria are measurable, brave, simple and clear. By applying four criteria, the aim is to examine how well the police force are on formulating goals, and to examine if the goals are changing through the management chain.
