Background
In January 2021, Strategic Leadership Board approved a new operating model for Specially Trained Officers (STOs) across Scotland which would see the number of STOs be increased from the then current cadre of around 500 to around 2000 over a 3 year period. This is due to be completed by April 2024. This model was presented to the SPA Policing and Performance Committee on the 1st September 2021 and approved.
