Police have said the pilot mirrors how officers worked in the Grampian region before the founding of Police Scotland
The Scottish Government – which funds but has no operational control over the force – said it was “vital” it retains trust and relationships with communities. The new process, police said, would allow those who reported a crime to find out quicker if no action will be taken and free up officers to investigate other crimes, respond to emergencies and keep the public safe.
A spokeswoman for the Scottish Government said: “While these decisions are a matter for the Chief Constable, it is vital Police Scotland continues to inspire public trust and maintains relationships with local communities. “Police Scotland should be applauded for being so candid about the reality of their predicament, but communities deserve better than the SNP’s weak approach to justice and shabby surrender to criminals.
