Section 79 provides that the Dover Harbour Board may nominate people to be <a href="/wiki/Special_constable" title="Special constable">special constables</a>, who are then sworn in by a <a href="/wiki/Justice_of_the_peace" title="Justice of the peace">justice of the peace</a>.

The authority also owns land in an area known as 'Port Zone' in the Whitfield area to the north of the town. Combined, this land ownership effectively gives the PoDP jurisdiction throughout the whole town of Dover, but in practical terms the policing activities of the PoDP are directed at the Eastern and Western Dock Terminals and the public promenade located between the two terminals.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>As the PoDP does not have its own custody facilities, the practice had been that people who had been arrested were taken to Kent Police's Dover police station. However, when the custody suite there closed in November 2011, PoDP officers would have instead been required to take arrestees to Canterbury, Folkestone or Margate police stations, but the force received a legal opinion stating that this would be unlawful as this would put them outside the one mile limit of their jurisdiction. A short term measure had to be introduced whereby suspects were arrested by officers from <a href="/wiki/Kent_Police" title="Kent Police">Kent Police</a> and transport them to a suitable police station on behalf of PoDP. This problem was resolved when the <a href="/wiki/Marine_Navigation_Act_2013" title="Marine Navigation Act 2013">Marine Navigation Act 2013</a> (c. 23) was introduced in early 2014, allowing the jurisdiction of port police officers to extend to the <a href="/wiki/Police_area" title="Police area">police area</a> in which they are located where the chief officer of the local police force consents (in relation to port policing matters only).<sup id="cite_ref-thisiskent_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-thisiskent-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The area policed by the PoDP is not a separate police area, and as a result primary responsibility for the maintenance and enforcement of criminal law throughout the county of Kent including the Port of Dover rests with the chief constable of <a href="/wiki/Kent_Police" title="Kent Police">Kent Police</a>.

Serious offences committed within the port, such as acts of <a href="/wiki/Terrorism" title="Terrorism">terrorism</a>, <a href="/wiki/Murder" title="Murder">murder</a>, <a href="/wiki/Manslaughter" title="Manslaughter">manslaughter</a>, <a href="/wiki/Rape" title="Rape">rape</a>, facilitation of illegal immigration or any incident involving the death (suspicious or not) of a person are investigated by Kent Police. However, PoDP officers will take immediate necessary action prior to the arrival of Kent Police officers in such cases. Kent Police assist PoDP with crimes that they do investigate by providing such services as forensic officers, specialist support units and custody office facilities, the PoDP not having its own custody suite. </p><p>Whilst national arrangements exist between <a href="/wiki/Territorial_police_forces" class="mw-redirect" title="Territorial police forces">territorial police forces</a> for <a href="/wiki/Mutual_aid_(emergency_services)" title="Mutual aid (emergency services)">mutual aid</a> policing, these do not apply between a territorial and non-Home Office forces such as PoDP.

The port also handles an ever-increasing number of cargo ships, cruise ships and a large number of leisure craft at the marina. These statistics result in a very high level of daily interaction with the public which makes PoDP unusual compared with other port police forces. During 2009 officers of PoDP made over 700 arrests for a wide variety of offences including drink-driving, theft, fraud and public order. Hundreds of other traffic and crime offences were dealt with by way of reporting for summons, or by the issue of graduated fixed penalty notices (this is for where an address is not suitable for summons and Port of Dover officers have been authorised by Kent Police to issue these notices). </p><p>Non-police staff are employed alongside police officers, particularly in the manning of the control room and <a href="/wiki/CCTV_camera" class="mw-redirect" title="CCTV camera">CCTV cameras</a> which were formerly based in the operational police station just inside the main entrance to the Eastern Docks.
