To ask the Scottish Government how many police officers (a) are currently employed and (b) were employed in (i) 2013, (ii) 2018 and (iii) 2021, in (A) North Lanarkshire, (B) South Lanarkshire and (C) Falkirk.
Answer
The Scottish Government does not hold the information requested. The recruitment and deployment of resources is a matter for the Chief Constable.
Policing is and will continue to be a priority for the Scottish Government. Scotland has a higher number of officers than at any time during the last administration – and more per head of population than England and Wales (30 officers per 10,000 population in Scotland, compared to 24 officers per 10,000 population in England and Wales). Local police divisions have a core complement of officers who may be supported by specialist expertise and resources at a regional and national level.

To ask the Scottish Government, further to the statement by the Cabinet Secretary for Social Justice, Housing and Local Government on 12 May 2022 on cladding remediation, whether it has met the commitment to (a) update the Parliament on any further progress of the Single Building Assessment pilot programme, (b) provide a quarterly update on the numbers of assessments being completed under this programme and (c) arrange a more detailed cross-party briefing on the technical detail of the programme, and for what reason any of these commitments have not been met to date.
Answer
I provided an update on progress on cladding remediation to Parliament on 2 March and remain committed to arranging a more detailed technical briefing and making a full statement to Parliament at the appropriate time. Information on the Single Building Assessment programme has been provided to Parliament through responses to Parliamentary Questions. Data on spend and information on the numbers of buildings in the Single Building Assessment Pilot is published on the Scottish Government website Single Building Assessment programme: spending information - gov.scot (www.gov.scot).
