Introduction
This Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) seeks to provide a guide to early and effective identification, and appropriate engagement, between both organisations when Police Scotland is considering a new and emerging strategy, policy or practice to improve the safety and wellbeing of persons, localities and communities in Scotland, and which are likely to be of significant public interest.
The aim is to provide early recognition of the public import of the issue, a focus on understanding the public interest around it, and a shared critical pathway for assessment and anticipated outcomes. The MOU will use existing Police Scotland management controls and advisory mechanisms, and SPA governance systems, to achieve the aim.
