353.2. The municipalities that are to be served by a municipal police force pursuant to sections 71 and 72 must submit to the Minister for approval, at the latest on 1 January 2002, a police service organization plan stating, in particular, that the services of the required level will be provided at the latest on 1 June 2002. However, if a municipality resulting from a municipal merger and referred to in the first paragraph of section 71 has a population of 100,000 or more on 1 June 2002, the municipality will not be required to submit such a plan before 1 July 2002 and the services of the required level will not be required to be provided before 1 January 2003. In both cases, if a municipality fails to meet the requirements, the Minister may establish the terms and conditions according to which the police services are to be shared by the municipalities concerned.
