520 _aIn 2003 the Australian government set up the Australian Federal Police International Deployment Group. The IDG was the world's first dedicated rapid deployment civilian police force. It was intended to address the problems experienced in post-conflict societies that lacked effective impartial law enforcement and help to overcome the problems of the ad hoc nature of UN policing and the complexities of multinational efforts. The article assesses the IDG's achievements, looks at its deployments to Solomon Islands and PNG, and considers whether IDG's greater effectiveness is offset by its reduced legitimacy compared to a UNPOL mission.
