Sixty-two out of the RS parliament’s 83 deputies voted against the reform, stating that "any model of police organization in Bosnia according to which police districts would cross the entity boundary line is unacceptable." Even the moderate Party of Independent Social Democrats (SNSD), Republika Srpska’s largest opposition party, voted against the proposal.
Šezdeset i dva od ukupno 83 poslanika u parlamentu RS glasalo je protiv tih reformi, sa obrazloženjem da je “svaki model organizacije policije u Bosni po kome bi policija mogla da prelazi entitetske linije podele neprihvatljiv”. Čak i umerena Stranka nezavisnih socijaldemokrata (SNSD) – najveća opoziciona partija u Republici Srpskoj – glasala protiv predloga.
