A law enforcement agency was a department or agency whose focus was on law enforcement. They were a series of forces that served as a type of security group to ensure that laws were obeyed, and that order and peace was the norm on a planet, or in space under a planet's jurisdiction.
Upon Jadzia Dax expressing her distress over the condition of her friends (crewmates), Christopher Brynner assured her he had friends in the police department he could contact for her when the things settled down. (DS9: "Past Tense, Part II")
Upon seeing Regana Tosh's poor-quality mugshot on a PADD being reviewed by Worf in 2373, Quark commented on that "I've never understood why law enforcement agencies don't keep better visual records. You'd think they'd be concerned about little things like making an accurate identification." (DS9: "Hippocratic Oath")
