Background
The Scottish Police Authority is committed to continuous improvement in the discharge of its responsibilities and its oversight and support for policing in Scotland. The Authority’s Corporate Governance Framework is subject to regular review with the most recent review reported to and approved by the Authority in November 2024. In addition, the Authority conducts an annual self-assessment of the effectiveness of Committees.
The Authority enhanced the 2024/25 committee effectiveness process by inviting key stakeholders to offer their assessment and views on the effectiveness of each of the Authority’s committees. The stakeholders listed below were invited to complete a survey and offer comments. All stakeholders consulted have contributed to and/or attended a committee in the last year:
Police Scotland
Forensic Services
PIRC
COSLA
Crown Office
Scottish Government
HMICS
Biometrics Commissioner
National Crime Agency
Internal/External Audit
SCPOSA
ASPS
SPF
Unison
Unite
To encourage open and frank responses, Members and stakeholders were invited to complete the survey anonymously.
To support accountability and transparency, the Authority is reporting the survey findings and holding all committee effectiveness discussions in public sessions of committee meetings.
