Welcome to our new corporate plan for the next three years. This plan focuses on widening the impact and credibility of our reports, further strengthening confidence in our evidence base and advice, working with other scrutiny bodies to examine cross-cutting outcomes and driving improvement through targeted recommendations. We will continue to underpin this activity with improvements to internal governance and an increased focus on the wellbeing and development of our staff, whose mix of skills and experience are the cornerstone of our success.

Our purpose
HM Inspectorate of Constabulary in Scotland’s (HMICS) statutory purpose is to inquire into the state, efficiency and effectiveness of both the Scottish Police Authority (SPA) and Police Scotland, and arrangements made by the SPA and Chief Constable to secure best value.
Scottish Ministers may also direct HMICS to make inquiries about any matter relating to the SPA or the police service as they consider appropriate.
