The European Commission was supporting, through its Rapid Reaction Mechanism, the launching of the Integrated Police Unit (Unité de Police Intégrée - UPI) in Kinshasa. With this decision, which is part of a comprehensive €14 million EU support programme towards the establishment and functioning of the UPI, the Commission will provide €1,072,000 to rehabilitate the operational centre of the UPI in Kinshasa. Works were planned to be overseen by an independent EU and World Bank supported unit attached to the DRC Ministry of Works, and to start within a few days, with a view to the newly trained officers to occupying the centre during the following months. |
