Police Scotland

A policing body and a police force

The Police Service of Scotland (Police Scotland) became operational on 1 April 2013, and replaces the 8 regional police forces in Scotland:

  • Central Scotland Police
  • Dumfries and Galloway Constabulary
  • Fife Constabulary
  • Grampian Police
  • Lothian and Borders Police
  • Northern Constabulary
  • Strathclyde Police
  • Tayside Police

It also replaces the Scottish Crime and Drug Enforcement Agency.
