Similar in production style to the 'Thunderbirds' series which were made around about the same time. These hold up very well after over 40 years!

The acting in Thunderbirds was much better.

IMDB says 'United Network Command for Law Enforcement' but I thought it was Nations, not Network.

Its usual to leave prepositions (such as 'for') out of acronyms.
