Request
At 1230 on 25th May 2023, Alice Falukner, a journalist with Radio Clyde News posted on her Twitter account @alicefaulknr a clip from an interview with Dr Victor Olisa, an Equality Advisor to the Police Service of Scotland, and presumably the Scottish Police Authority (SPA)
In that interview Dr Olisa stated
“When we look at the data that we collect, in the service that we provide, in some cases the services we provide into sections of the community is not as good as the service we provide into others”
In terms of the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002, I hereby formally request a copy of any reports on that data that were shared with the SPA, as well as details of any scrutiny applied to and analysis undertaken by the SPA on such reports, and details, notes, emails, and minutes associated with any meetings where such reports were discussed.
Separately I also request copies of any correspondence to or from Dr Olisa, and the offices of the Scottish Police Authority.
