  17. “The Scotsman” 11 July 2008 CENTRAL SCOTLAND POLICE

  18. The SIO’s view Having had the services of Fraser and Anne for a fortnight, I have to say that I have been consistently impressed by their commitment and dedication in the face of a high volume of work. They certainly took a great burden away from their police officer colleagues and I would be happy to work with them again in the same circumstances. CENTRAL SCOTLAND POLICE

  19. The politician’s view “Civilians don’t sign up to the level of commitment that a sworn police officer does. They don’t necessarily have the same dedication. It’s frightening and astonishing that civilians can be carrying out the job of police officers in such serious crimes. “Police officers sometimes have to carry out fairly menial tasks. Sometime that requires them to do jobs that, yes, could be carried out by civilians” Mr XXXXXXX, Labour MSP, quoted in The Scotsman, 11 July 2009 CENTRAL SCOTLAND POLICE
