EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order amends sections 19 and 32 of the Police (Scotland) Act 1967 to increase the percentage of unspent police funds that can be carried forward by joint police boards and unitary police authorities from one financial year to the next.

Article 2(2) amends section 19(3A) and (3C) to increase the percentages from three per cent. to four per cent. and from five per cent. to eight per cent. respectively. Article 2(3) makes similar amendments to section 32(10B) and (10F).

To give effect to those provisions article 3 of this Order also makes the six Combined Police Area Amalgamation (Amendment) Schemes 2011 set out in Schedules 1 to 6 (“the 2011 Schemes”).

The 2011 Schemes amend the provisions of—

(a)the Central Scotland Combined Police Area Amalgamation Scheme 1995;

(b)the Grampian Combined Police Area Amalgamation Scheme 1995;

(c)the Lothian and Borders Combined Police Area Amalgamation Scheme 1995;

(d)the Northern Combined Police Area Amalgamation Scheme 1995;

(e)the Strathclyde Combined Police Area Amalgamation Scheme 1995; and

(f)the Tayside Combined Police Area Amalgamation Scheme 1995

(“the 1995 Schemes”).

Paragraph 12 of each of the 1995 Schemes is amended so that the joint police boards may carry forward the increased

percentages which are substituted by article 2 of this Order.
