Report Summary
This Corporate Strategy sets out the role and responsibilities of the Scottish Police Authority, the five outcomes we seek to achieve and the high-level activities designed to achieve them. It aligns to the Scottish Government’s Strategic Police Priorities, and should be read alongside the Strategic Police Plan and the Forensic Services Strategy, which relate to the delivery of the police and forensic services that the Authority is responsible for.
This Corporate Strategy is underpinned by a more detailed Implementation Plan for the period.
The Board
Board members contribute a wealth of skills from both public and private sectors, knowledge, expertise, experience and perspectives.
They act in accordance, and comply with, recognised best practice set out in On Board: A Guide for Members of Statutory Boards. As Board members appointed through the public appointments process, members perform their role in accordance with The Ethical Standards in Public Life etc. (Scotland) Act 2000. This means that the Authority acts in a way that is accountable, proportionate and transparent, and which accords with the nine key principles underpinning public life in Scotland: Selflessness, Integrity, Accountability, Openness, Leadership, Objectivity, Honesty, Public Service, and Respect.
