Next Steps
Members are requested to endorse the planned programme of work outlined in terms of the Policing in a Digital World Programme, the Rights Based Pathway and to acknowledge CAID FM and BERLA have been through the pathway and as a result Police Scotland wish to activate this technology.
Incorporating a rights based approach to policing, that balances privacy and protection is critical. Public, colleague and stakeholder engagement will enable us to understand this as we consider how we develop and implement technology to support policing in Scotland. A Rights Based Governance Pathway will ensure that Police Scotland can demonstrate a consistent and proportionate approach to assessing data ethics and public interest considerations.
CAID FM and BERLA having been subject to a respective data ethics triage assessment meet the criteria for assessment through the pathway and through their introduction into the organisation, will enable the service to test the pathway over the next 6 months, enable learning and review and ensure the most effective approach to the introduction/adoption of new technology going forward.
As outlined previously, the progress of the PDWP, the Rights Based Pathway and the introduction of CAID FM and BERLA has been approved by the organisation, through the respective internal governance structures.
A slide presentation overview of this report incorporating the PDWP, Rights Based Pathway, CAID FM and BERLA will accompany this report and be delivered at the meeting.
