This title may be cited as the "Public Safety Partnership and Community
Policing Act of 1994".
SEC. 10002. PURPOSES.
The purposes of this title are to-
(1) substantially increase the number of law enforcement officers

(2) provide additional and more effective training to law enforcement
officers to enhance their problem solving, service, and other skills needed
in interacting with members of the community;
(3) encourage the development and implementation of innovative programs to
permit members of the community to assist State, Indian tribal government,
and local law enforcement agencies in the prevention of crime in the
community; and
(4) encourage the development of new technologies to assist State, Indian
tribal government, and local law enforcement agencies in reorienting the
emphasis of their activities from reacting to crime to preventing crime,
by establishing a program of grants and assistance in furtherance of these
objectives, including the authorization for a period of 6 years of grants for
the hiring and rehiring of additional career law enforcement officers.
SEC. 10003. COMMUNITY POLICING; "COPS ON THE BEAT".

the Administrative Office of the United States Courts after consultation with
the Secretary of Health and Human Services may determine to be of equivalent
accuracy. The court shall consider whether the availability of appropriate
