Municipalities have until December 10th to submit applications for admission to state funding for 2021, aimed at creating urban video surveillance systems and aimed at preventing and combating widespread and predatory crime. Resources amount to 27 million. The Interior Ministry makes it known.

The prefectoral report on the request for funding, in addition to certifying the eligibility requirements, must contain a
