Policing Performance Committee - 16 September 2025

Date : 09 December 2025

Location : online


Background & context

The Authority, COSLA and Police Scotland committed, through a partnership agreement signed in 2023, to strengthening collaboration across four priority areas, we well as promoting and supporting overall partnership working.

The four priority areas identified for delivery over the lifetime of the partnership agreement are:
• Local Scrutiny and accountability
• Prevention and early intervention
• Health and wellbeing
• Resources and investment

The agreement, and underpinning priorities, builds on a history of collaboration across local government and policing focused on serving, protecting, and enhancing local communities.

Staff and officers across COSLA, Police Scotland and the Authority have worked to develop a partnership delivery plan which reflects the ambition of the partnership agreement. The actions contained in the delivery plan reflect priority areas of focus, ongoing partnership activity, and new areas of work.

Committee last considered the Partnership Delivery Plan (PDP) in March 2024, endorsing the direction set through the actions detailed in the plan.
