Office of the Commissioner

The Office of the Commissioner is a Liaison Department between the Mayor's Office and the Unified Police Department.

General Description
The Office of the Commissioner is a Liaison Department instituted by Abdul AlRahim on November 15th, 2021.

While each Mayor and Commissioner may have a different Mode of Operation, the general basis relies on the Commissioner creating documents and spreadsheets of both Spendings and Earnings of the Unified Police Department. From this, the Mayor's Office determines a total budget to give to the Police Department, which is transferred from the State Account to the Office of the Commissioner.

The Commissioner then partitions the Budget, and deposits it into each Department/Division/Unit's registered Bank Account for their use.
