So far, only 648 applicants are ‘vying’ to be admitted to the PSP police force on a course with places for 1,020. Says the PSP on its website, it is not even certain the 648 will all fit the requirements, which include a certificate to show they completed education up to the 12th year. Carlos Torres of the PSP syndicate SIAP has also pointed out that ministry of internal administration PR on the money paid to new recruits does not change the fact that they (still) only receive a base rate pay on starting their careers of €808.
