Member Recruitment
As set out in Schedule 1 of the Police and Fire Reform (Scotland) Act 2012, the Board of the Scottish Police Authority consists of up to 15 members (including a Chair) appointed by Scottish Ministers through a public appointments process. Currently, the Board consists of 12 members, including the Chair and meets the Scottish Government’s 50/50 gender commitment with 7 female members.
The Authority has been in touch with the Scottish Government regarding a recruitment round for members later this year and in preparation for some appointment terms coming to an end in 2025. Both the Authority and the Scottish Government are committed to enhancing the diversity of the Board. We will actively promote and encourage applications for the Board from those with protected characteristics.
