Meeting of the Scottish Police Authority - 25 May 2023

Date : 25 May 2023

Location : Crown Plaza, Glasgow


Background

Since the last report to the Scottish Police Authority Board on 29 September 2022, where progress on the work of the IRG was presented, the work of the group has continued apace, shifting from scoping and discovery to implementation and evidence gathering.

Following the appointment of Dr Victor Olisa to work on a consultancy basis with Police Scotland in February 2023, the IRG now has a membership of 9. The group continues to be chaired by Robin Iffla with Chris Creegan and Pheona Matovu acting as vice-chairs. A list of the full membership is attached in appendix A.

Each member contributes to one or more working group related to the key outcomes on culture, strategy and training and development, with a lead member taking responsibility for coordination. Angela Voulgari has taken responsibility for a parallel, deep dive case study on Police Scotland’s work on sexism and misogyny which we will cover in our second interim report.
