Police Scotland

Question

What discussions she had with Police Scotland prior to the laying of the Serious Organised Crime and Police Act 2005 (Designated Scottish Sites under Section 129) Order 2021.

Officials in the Home Office worked closely with Scottish Parliament counterparts throughout the process.
