Governance & Strategic Engagement
Police Scotland‘s internal governance has improved and its wider strategic engagement is demonstrable. We are an active participant in the UK NCA-led structures including the Pursue and Prevent Boards and the NCA Strategic Governance Group. Police Scotland internally operates a TOCSA Gold (Strategic) and Silver (Tactical) structure. Various subgroups, such as the Online Child Abuse Activist Groups (OCAG) Practice & Policy Group, the Multi-Agency Preventing OCSAE Group (MAOCSAE) and Child Abuse Image Database (CAID) Working Group all report to TOCSA Tactical.
