Dear Police Scotland,

Please can you provide the following information:

2. Does the device provide real time information, is it connected via wi-fi, WiMax or similar?
3. What databases is this device connected with?
4. What is the cost involved in the unit along with the three officers that appear to be required to use it?
5. Why is it that Special branch officer as so concerned with Glasgow Airport as there is no officers demanding passports at Edinburgh, is there any documention that support this?
