The Union assurance levels should provide for a proportionate framework to ensure
that public order is preserved by maintaining control and agency by public-sector
bodies. Most public services would not require the highest levels of assurance. In
some specific cases Union assurance levels 3 or 4 may be considered necessary and
proportionate in preserving public order. The risk assessment to be performed by
Member States and Union entities ensures that the principles of proportionality and
subsidiarity are complied with, by assessing the specific cases in which protection of
public order requires the highest level of assurance.
