Reputational Implications

The carriage of Naloxone intranasal spray allows Police Scotland officers to have a potentially lifesaving option available to them in life threatening situations. The carriage has already had significant unintended impact with organisations and members of the public requesting Naloxone through the Scottish Governments National Naloxone programme as a direct result of Police Scotland’s Test of Change.
