Marking the Service of Eight Regional Police Forces

Lodged by Graeme Pearson Standard Motion 26 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament notes that the emergence of the Police Service of Scotland marks the end of eight regional police forces; acknowledges the death in service and sacrifice made by many officers in those eight forces over the 38 years that they have been in place; further acknowledges the professionalism, commitment and successes achieved by police officers and staff over those years, and hopes that the creation and establishment of the Police Service of Scotland and the Scottish Police Authority will not only be subjected to proper accountability by MSPs but will also deliver on the promise of better services both locally and nationally.
