The PAP was spun off from the People's Liberation Army in April 1983 and was intended to remove domestic security functions from the People's Liberation Army. The PAP's primary mission is the protection of government buildings at all level of government. Additionally it provides internal security and security police functions to public corporations and deals with major public events. The PAP maintains a general headquarters at the national level located in Beijing and subordinate division-level headquarters located in the provincial capitals. It also maintains various specialized units, regimental-level detachments, and battalion-level brigades, and it retains its military organization. PAPF units assigned to internal security are responsible for guarding party and state organizations and foreign embassies and consulates, as well as for responding to emergencies and maintaining law and order. The PAP also has a special unit for counter-terrorist functions. See also Immediate Action Unit
