The expansion of the tasks of border hunters and public area inspectors is problematic according to the police union.

The Közszolgálati Rendőr Szakszervezet (KRZSZ) criticizes a proposed law amendment for failing to address police pay and staffing shortages. While some aspects, like facilitating the return of retired officers and improving leave conditions, are positive, the overall changes may increase the burden on already overworked police. The involvement of border guards in police duties is seen as potentially problematic, as it could further strain existing personnel. Additionally, extending the duration of temporary assignments raises concerns about leadership limits and complaint processing times. The KRZSZ emphasizes that merely assigning more tasks is insufficient; adequate staffing, working conditions, and genuine appreciation for the workforce are essential for strengthening law enforcement.
