Our Annual Scrutiny Plan for 2015-16 sets out how HM Inspectorate of Constabulary in Scotland (HMICS) will meet its statutory purpose to inquire into the state, efficiency and effectiveness of both the Police Service of Scotland (‘Police Scotland’) and the Scottish Police Authority.
This Plan was first published in July 2015 in terms of Section 75 of the Police and Fire Reform (Scotland) Act 2012 and set out our priorities for inquiries over the year. It demonstrated how we would carry these out in a way that was proportionate, accountable and transparent.
