This order updates the gender-balance rules for candidate lists in 2026 staff representative elections for several National Police consultative commissions. Candidate lists must match the share of women and men in the workforce represented by each commission. The change mainly affects unions, staff groups, and election organizers preparing candidate lists for the next general renewal of public-sector social dialogue bodies. It does not change police operations or employment rights; it sets the required gender proportions for election lists.
