The aim of this assurance review is to provide independent assessment of the state, effectiveness and efficiency of policing arrangements for COP26 with focused assurance work across three key areas:

• Police Scotland’s Business as Usual (BAU) capacity and capability arrangements for non-COP26 related policing activity
• Police Scotland’s arrangements for monitoring and supporting staff wellbeing pre, during and post COP26
• Police Scotland’s co-ordination, management and mobilisation of resources including mutual aid support in response to COP26
