History
In 2010, the Věci veřejné political party demanded the resignation of then police president Oldřich Martinů. Former VV's Minister of the Interior Radek John also called for a new police president. The argument was settled after then President of the Czech Republic Václav Klaus formulated an agreement between the Police of the Czech Republic, the ODS and the VV. It was stipulated that the VV would choose a new police president while the ODS would appoint the director of the newly formed GIBS.{{cite web|last=Shabu|first=Martin|url=https://www.lidovky.cz/ceska-pozice/vymena-policejniho-sefa-na-promysleny-kalkul-ods-to-nevypada.A120830_141604_pozice_76144|title=Výměna policejního šéfa: Na promyšlený kalkul ODS to nevypadá|date=31 August 2012|website=Lidové noviny|access-date=13 September 2017}}
