A 7 per cent increase to pay and allowances has been agreed for all police officers in Scotland.
The Scottish Police Authority said the agreement, which will be backdated to April 1 2023, recognises the valuable contribution police officers make keeping people and communities across Scotland safe.
Martyn Evans, chairman of the Scottish Police Authority, said: “This is a challenging financial climate for policing and difficult choices are being taken to ensure we stay within the budget. The new agreement was reached following extensive dialogue and negotiation through the Police Negotiating Board which is made up of representatives from the Scottish Police Authority, Police Scotland, the Scottish Government, the Association of Scottish Police Superintendents , SPF and the Scottish Chief Police Officers Staff Association .
