The main police force of Barbados was set up in 1835. The Royal Barbados Police Force (RBPF), established under the Police Act of 1961 and the Constitution of Barbados, is a key part of the government responsible for keeping law and order in local communities. The RBPF is split into three territorial divisions: Operations Support Division, Administrative Support Division, and Criminal Investigations Division. The organization structure of the RBPF was inspired by London's Metropolitan Police Service. The "Royal" label was added to the police force title in February 1966 when the Queen visited Barbados. Since then, "Royal" has remained a part of the name and identity of the force.
