Page | 1 Scottish Fire and Rescue Service Police & Fire and Rescue Committee – 15 August 2022 Subject Performance Report and Service updates Purpose To advise members of the Police and Fire Committee as to progress against North Ayrshire’s Local Fire and Rescue Plan and to provide committee members with other key Fire and Rescue Service updates Recommendation For members to note the information contained within this report 1. Introduction 1.1 On the 1st October 2019, the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) laid before the Scottish Parliament its new Strategic Plan for the period 2019-22. As a result of this publication, the Service is legally obliged to review its existing Local Fire and Rescue Plans for all 32 local authorities across Scotland. 1.2 The priorities contained within the current North Ayrshire Local Fire and Rescue Plan were formally approved at the full Council. The continuation of these priorities has been agreed for the 2021/22 period, via the Police & Fire and Rescue Committee, and will be subject to ongoing monitoring via this forum. 2. Performance Summary 2.1 An analysis of operational responses within North Ayrshire for the period 1st April to 30th June 2022 identified a 10.9% decrease in activity levels across the local authority when compared to the corresponding period in 2021. A further review of the three years average indicated a 3% decrease in overall operational activity during a similar timeframe. 2.2 In reviewing operational activity on a broader level, false alarms accounted for 54.4% of all demand within North Ayrshire, with fire related and special service activity accounting for 32.2% and 13.4% respectively. 2.3 For the period 1st April to 30th June 2022, overall progress is being monitored across six indicators, utilising the three-year rolling average as basis of measuring performance. Year on year and the rolling three-year average figures are also used to review short and long terms changes in demand and trends. 2.4 Further analysis of this performance is provided within the associated performance report (Appendix A).

Page | 2 3. SFRS Updates 3.1 The consultation process for the draft SFRS Strategic Plan 2022-25 closed on the 10th July 2022. This will result in a review of the North Ayrshire Local Fire and Rescue Plan and its priorities on the publication of the new Strategic Plan. 3.2 The Local Senior Officer Area officially opened a Youth Volunteer Scheme at Kilwinning Community Fire Station on Thursday 28th April 2022. This programme contains young people from across the region, who will embark on a three-year programme until its completion or them reaching 18 years of age. 3.3 Managers from across the Local Senior Officer are continuing to participate in Carbon Literacy Training, via the North Ayrshire Community Planning Partnership. This training will further support managers to closer align the principles contained within the SFRS Climate Change Response Plan to the environmental and sustainability objectives that are aligned to the Local Outcome Improvement Plan. 3.4 The Ayrshire Local Senior Officer Area has developed a post non-domestic approach to help reduce the number of fires occurring within non-domestic [relevant] premises. This process is designed to support the general principles of Community Wealth Building and further reduce the impact fire can have on the local economy. 3.5 Local teams from across the Ayrshire Local Senior Officer Area have participated in a series of national organisational Courageous Conversations on Race events. These national development events were designed to enhance local teams understanding of the different needs of our diverse communities and to tailor service provisions more towards local needs; in line with the SFRS’s decision making pathway for mainstreaming equalities. These events were supported by representatives from Police Scotland, Ayrshire Division; who attended and actively enriched the conversations during the two-day event. 4. Proposal It is proposed that members of the Police & Fire and Rescue Committee: a) Note the contents of the performance summary and associated report for the period 1st April to 30 June 2022. b) Note the SFRS updates. 5. Implications 5.1 No implications have been identified at this time in respect of service delivery within North Ayrshire. 6

We will continue to work closely with our partners in North Ayrshire to ensure we are all “Working Together for a Safer Scotland” through targeting risks to our communities at a local level. The plan has been developed to complement key partnership activity embedded across North Ayrshire'sCommunity Planning Partnership. Through effective and co-ordintated partnership working we will seek to deliver continuous improvement in our performance and effective service delivery in our area of operations. The Local Fire and Rescue Plan for North Ayrshire identified six areas for demand reduction and is subject to regular monitoring and reporting through the Police & Fire and Rescue Committee.

OFFICIAL—POLICE & PARTNERS 5 SERIOUS CRIME—Violence/Homicide Analytical Context: Violent crime is currently down 0.3% on the 5-year average. Serious Assaults have reduced markedly with just 7 crimes recorded in the first quarter compared with 14 last year and a 5-year average of 21.2. Detection rates are currently lower at 57.1% compared to 85.7% last year, however work is ongoing to investigate the outstanding crimes. Four of these crimes have taken place within the home with one being domestic related. 5 of the crimes have noted alcohol consumption as a potential factor. Five of the victims were male and three have taken place in Kilwinning. There have been no Murders in the reporting period, however there have been four Attempted Murders, all of which have been detected. Three involved a bladed weapon and one involved a vehicle driven at the victim. Minor Assaults on members of the public continue to show increased numbers, compared with both last year and the 5-year average (see chart below). Notably 7 assaults on retail workers have been recorded in Q1 and these are included in these figures. April currently shows the greatest volume of crimes reported, however 65 crimes have been reported during the Q1 period which did not take place during these three months. Of these 44 are considered non-recent. The current detection rate is 60.3% which is above the figure last year (53.5%) but lower than the 5-year average (63.9%). Local Action/Context: There continues to be proactivity by staff in terms of identifying any repeat victims, offenders and locations which allow measures to be introduced to prevent any further escalations. The Community Wellbeing Unit have undertaken some successful diversionary work with a previous violent offender who is now engaging with services and pursuing an Army career. Local officers continue to be proactively deployed to any repeat locations and a number of successful action plans have resulted in the recovery of offensive weapons and bladed items. The night time economy continues to expand and there has been a significant increase in visits to licensed premises with 1070 inspections completed during this reporting period, compared to only 139 reported incidents. Common assault reports are subject of daily management review and scrutiny and any evidential opportunities are swiftly and fully exploited and this is evidenced in the rise in detections. This review extends to specialist departments who support local officers in the identification and apprehension of offenders. There continues to be proactive engagement with retailers, a focused poster campaign highlighting that violence against retails workers is unacceptable. A non recent enquiry continues to successfully focus on identification of historic offending and offenders and it is anticipated as the Major enquiry develops a number of these common assault offences will be detected.

OFFICIAL—POLICE & PARTNERS 6 SERIOUS CRIME—Drug Supply Source: Taken from Police Scotland Business Intelligence Portal Analytical Context: Drug Supply charges are currently down 52.8% on the 5-year average. In Q1 there has been a marked reduction (n= 10) in the number of charges being brought compared with both last year (n=42) and the 5-year average (n=21.2). Cannabis cultivations have also recorded a decrease this year with 5 being identified compared with 7 last year. Proactivity remains the main focus and means by which these charges are obtained, however identifying any real patterns to where these crimes are taking place is often difficult. As stated previously, identifying potential suppliers is more likely to be the result of combined work with local officers and Divisional staff, building on the Community Intelligence provided by North Ayrshire residents, Community groups, etc. Local Action/Context: Ayrshire Division continues to benefit from a dedicated Proactive Crime Team (PACT) and within North Ayrshire officers continue to be supported by our Priority Policing Team (PPT). The teams continue to proactively target those who are concerned in the supply of controlled drugs, develop local intelligence and progress issues identified by members of the community. During this reporting period, significant results with regards to restraining of criminal assets have been made, targeting those involved in Serious and Organised Crime (SOC), particularly targeting those individuals who continue to engage in serious and organised crime. In the reporting period North Ayrshire have seized £65,915.30 from those engaged in SOC. North Ayrshire continue to focus on the threats and risks associated with county lines crimes and work with partners to raise awareness in community and educational settings of the warning signs. Local Campus officers continue to raise awareness of the issues within the education setting. Preventions and Interventions Officers have been promoting Crimestoppers as a means to report anonymously. The new online Neighbourhood Watch scheme utilised by Preventions officers. 26

OFFICIAL—POLICE & PARTNERS 7 SERIOUS CRIME—Sexual Crime Analytical Context: Sexual crime is currently down 15.6% on the 5-year average. Q1 has noted a decrease in Sexual Assaults while crimes of Rape have increased slightly. Non-recent crimes have reduced markedly on those being reported last year. In total there have been 68 Sexual crimes reported in the first quarter this year of which 7 are non-recent, this compares with 85 crimes in the same period last year of which 20 were non-recent. Detection rates currently sit at 86.8%, significantly above last year (43.5%) and the 5-year average (54.1%). This is reflected in Rape detections which is currently 84.6% and Sexual Assault detections at 100%. Police Scotland has made a concerted effort to raise awareness and encourage survivors of sexual abuse to report incidents regardless of when they occurred. Every report is investigated thoroughly, albeit there can be challenges with tracing witnesses or securing forensic opportunities. Local Action/Context: It remains unacceptable that these violent and abhorrent crimes are still taking place and North Ayrshire Police remains committed to education, working with partners and challenging behaviours. Campus officers are continuing to work proactively with young persons to highlight reporting mechanisms and danger signs from those who wish to cause them sexual harm. Police Scotland continues to promote the multiple award winning “That Guy” campaign and its positive approach in changing and challenging unacceptable male behaviours, not the actions of victims. It is gratifying that evidence continues to show increased confidence in reporting sexual crime to Police Scotland. In addition an increase has been noted in reports from our partner agencies such as Rape Crisis and Women’s Aid as counselling and support services return to normal levels of service. Feedback generated by victims to Rape Crisis describing and evaluating their experience with our trained officers in Ayrshire has been overwhelmingly positive this year and shows our continued commitment to support and provide the best service to victims of sexual crime. North Ayrshire police and partners continue to work together to raise awareness of reporting mechanisms, support measures and to encourage survivors of abuse to come forward and engage with services. Campus officers are continuing to work proactively with young persons to highlight reporting mechanisms and danger signs from those who wish to cause them sexual harm.

OFFICIAL—POLICE & PARTNERS 8 SAFER COMMUNITIES—Domestic Abuse Source: Data taken from iVPD through ScOMIS Analytical Context: Domestic Abuse crimes are currently down 21.7% on the 5-year average. Crimes in Q1 are down slightly compared to last year (214 this year compared with 220 last year) however the trend across the quarter is noticeably different as shown in the chart opposite. In 2021/22 crimes increased month on month while this year crimes showed a peak in April but the figures for May and June have decreased below those noted last year. Examination of the types of domestic abuse committed during these first three months indicates that the majority of crimes continue to be minor assaults however there has been one Serious Assault, 8 Rapes and 7 Domestic Abuse Act crimes (examples include Stalking and/or Coercive behaviour). Local Action/Context: 2022 will see the start of a major new collaboration project between Police Scotland and its partners in Ayrshire in the setting up of the MARAC (Multi Agency Risk Assessment Conference). MARAC is set to provide additional safeguarding to the highest risk victims of domestic violence across the region. Monthly conferences will be chaired by Police Scotland and with representation from Social Work and all involved agencies, local authority and third sector. The outcome will be a swift, pro-active and joined up approach to ensure the best possible outcome for victims within realistic timescales and with minimal delay. Ayrshire Division has committed to the continued investigation of domestic crime and the provision of the best services to victims, with the introduction of a new team who will work alongside the existing Domestic Abuse Investigation Unit. From July 2022 the Domestic Abuse Safeguarding Team (DAST) will provide a victim centred approach to creating better outcomes for those affected by domestic violence as well as focussing on prevention through the DSDAS process. North Ayrshire continues to benefit from the now well established Womans Aid premises in Saltcoats, I have reached out to them regarding some additional police funding available which will hopefully secure additional alarms for victims. The highly successful Ask for Angela campaign continues to be supported by Police Scotland in licensed premises across North Ayrshire. The 16 days Violence against Woman Campaign continues to be successful and promoted by North Ayrshire Police. 28

OFFICIAL—POLICE & PARTNERS 9 SAFER COMMUNITIES—Hate Crime Source: Taken from the iVPD database through ScOMIS Analytical Context: Hate crimes is currently 2.6% above the 5-year average. However in Q1 there has been a decrease noted when compared to last year (30 this year down from 36). Note that a single crime can have more than one hate crime type, for example one incident could feature homophobic and sectarian language. The chart opposite provides a breakdown of the different types of hate related crimes and highlights an increase in both Racial and Transphobic crimes but decreases in Homophobic and Religious crimes. At this stage in the year there are no repeat victims. Local Action/Context: Each hate crime victim receives a letter containing details of the enquiry officer and the investigations that are taking place to apprehend offenders. There continues to be proactivity by staff in terms of identifying any repeat victims, offenders and locations which allow measures to be introduced to prevent any further escalations. All evidential opportunities are taken to identify offenders and Community Wellbeing Unit colleagues routinely engage with offenders to divert them from further criminality. North Ayrshire Police continues to work closely with Community Wellbeing Unit and partners to engage with vulnerable victims and provide any additional partnership support. Campus officers continue to work closely with schools to raise awareness around the impact and effect of hate crimes. Staff at Barony House have been trained on the “Keep Safe Scotland” course. Refresher and new training has been provided to staff at Irvine Library and visited every Keep Safe Premises in North Ayrshire to confirm their compliance and continued interest in remaining on the I Am Me website. In June 2022 a #DontTolerateHate campaign was conducted across North Ayrshire via Facebook and Twitter mediums. Officers attended at Irvine Beat FM and a further inputs were provided on the campaign at community centres and local surgeries. 29

OFFICIAL—POLICE & PARTNERS 10 SAFER COMMUNITIES—Antisocial Behaviour Analytical Context: ASB Incidents are currently down 29.7% on the 5-year average. All three months of this year so far are recording much lower figures compared with last year and the 5-year average as detailed in the second chart below. Around 21.8% of incidents this quarter have resulted in a crime report being raised. It is assessed that approximately 14% of ASB incidents are youth related. There has also been a decrease in the number of ASB fixed penalty tickets issued during Q1 this year (n=23) compared with last year (n=35). However the reason for tickets being issued remains the same with the majority being issued for Breach of the Peace. Local Action/Context: Joint working has continued between British Transport Police (BTP), Police, Scotrail and local officers at train stations throughout Ayrshire (Operation Simplifier). This is a BTP operation designed to curb anti social behaviour in and around railway platforms. A number of Safer Shores initiatives have been held at Irvine Beach where officers from local and specialist departments as well as partners from a range of agencies have worked together to promote public safety on North Ayrshire beaches. Working closely with Scotrail and BTP significant seizures of alcohol were made, reducing the risk of anti social behaviour for all residents and visitors to have fun and enjoy their visit to the coast. North Ayrshire have been working closely with partners regarding the regeneration of Bourtreehill Park, Irvine, where the community have highlighted anti social behaviour as a barrier for visiting this area. An action plan was implemented to target peak days and times of youths using this park for drinking and to enhance public confidence. High visibility patrols and the use of social media received positive community feedback. There was an immediate reduction in anti social behaviour and youths attending to consume alcohol. Largs officers have undertaken extensive consultations with children via youth groups and local schools and feedback was that local children wanted access to sporting facilities. Through community engagements and partners area haves been made available for use throughout the summer period. Early indications are that the scheme is effective with no issues or incidents being reported. Local Irvine and Kilwinning officers continue to work closely with Eglington Park and engage in proactive patrols in response to concerns of antic social behaviour. Officers continue to work closely with North Ayrshire Council and Scottish Fire and Rescue Service in relation to concerns around disused buildings, including Arran Brewery in Dreghorn and North Ayrshire Central Hospital in Irvine. Work is ongoing with Historic Environment Scotland and North Ayrshire Council to identify and ASB issues at known historical buildings and monuments.

OFFICIAL—POLICE & PARTNERS 11 ACQUISITIVE CRIME—Housebreaking / Fraud Analytical Context: Housebreakings are currently down 19.6% on the 5-year average. The picture in Q1 this year shows very similar numbers to those recorded last year with domestic properties recording the same number of crimes and non-dwelling property recording one more whilst commercial premises recording one less. The detection rate is currently 17.1% which is below both last year (19.5%) and the 5-year average (25.9%). Examination of the commercial housebreakings shows no repeat locations so far, however two schools have been targeted and one pharmacy. Frauds are currently up 62.7% on the 5-year average. Q1 indicates that the upward trend of Frauds is continuing with crimes showing an increase of 67.3% on the figure from last year. However as can be seen from the chart below, Q1 in 2021 was significantly lower compared to 2020. The current detection rate is 14.6% which is below both last year (20.4%) and the 5-year average (27.8%). Local Action/Context: The majority of recorded crimes appear to both spontaneous and opportunistic with the majority occurring during the day. Analytical work is ongoing to support a renewed focus and governance around the issue to improve the detections rates which are increasing during quarter 1. All housebreaking crime reports are subject to rigorous review and scrutiny to identify all evidential opportunities. It is anticipated that when forensic updates are received a number of other opportunities to apprehend offenders will be available. All victims in North Ayrshire are contacted by the Preventions and Interventions Officer to provide safety advice and support to protect their properties All victims of fraud in North Ayrshire receive safety and support advice from the dedicated Crime Prevention Officer. This officer also proactively engages with banks and building societies in terms of modus operandi of offenders and any vulnerable victims, often resulting in victims being reimbursed. Bespoke Police Scotland anti fraud leaflets have been secured and distributed around banks, building societies, retail premises and medical establishments. In addition regular social media updates are provided around frauds and preventative measures can be taken.

OFFICIAL—POLICE & PARTNERS 12 ACQUISITIVE CRIME—Robberies Source: Taken from Police Scotland Business Intelligence Portal Local Action/Context: Robberies remain a key priority and daily focus for North Ayrshire, enhanced governance and scrutiny demonstrate that all crimes are thoroughly investigated and any offenders are identified and apprehended at the earliest opportunity. In the vast majority of reported crimes YTD the perpetrator and victim/witnesses are assessed to know each other however in most instances those involved are largely uncooperative or actively hostile with Police investigations. Of those currently undetected one is now marked for “No Crime” whilst another 3 are actively getting investigated. Only one has occurred at a commercial premise (again still currently under investigation) and there are no repeat or vulnerable victims or loci. Dedicated town centre officers proactively engage with retailers regarding preventative measure and raising awareness around repeat offenders. CCTV liaison is ongoing regarding upgrading of CCTV cameras and locations and our Local Authority Liaison Officer is proactively engaging with the Local Authority. Preventative measures continue, including those known offenders subject to bail conditions are subject to routine checks to ensure they are complying with their conditions, any issues identified during these checks can be escalated to the relevant agency. We remain committed to tackling the factors that could lead to offenders committing such crimes, and continue to work closely with partners to ensure appropriate support is in place reducing the likelihood of offending. Analytical Context: Robberies are currently down 15.3% on the 5-year average. Notably Q1 has recorded a slight increase in robberies compared to last year (10 compared with 8 last year) however this was primarily due to a spike in April. The current detection rate is 80% which is above the 5-year average (74.6%). At this stage it is noted that half of the crimes have taken place within the home, two in a shop and the remainder in an outdoor public location. Five have involved the use/ threat of a knife or bladed weapon. There are no repeat victims or offenders at this stage. The items most commonly being taken are mobile phones and cash. 32

OFFICIAL—POLICE & PARTNERS 13 COMMUNITY WELLBEING Local Action/Context: Substance Misuse CWU officers engaged with a vulnerable female from, Irvine after various concern for calls regarding mental health and long term addiction issues. Female supported and signposted to services and into local 12 step fellowship CA programme. Officers maintaining contact/support. In response to a concern for person call from social work services where a 19 year old female residing in, Irvine was suicidal and suffering from ongoing addiction issues, CWU officers have engaged. This female is now a regular recipient of all partner services and steps are now being taken to support her ongoing wellbeing issues. Youth Engagement There is ongoing engagement with looked after and accommodated children in Irvine and Kilwinning which has seen a reduction in them being reported as missing per- son. CWU officers engaging with the Street League Team who are delivering 10 week youth engagement programme in North Ayrshire, officers will now link in with this ongo- ing programme and support efforts to divert participants and encourage/link into employment opportunities. Welfare Concerns CWU officers engagement with a repeat high risk missing person twice who attempted suicide. Male and family engaged, support provided to address marital issues and employment matters. Male subject who had suicidal ideation now seeking additional support from health partners. CWU officers identified a repeat concern for a vulnerable male in Dalry. Following multiple joint support visits with Adult Support and Protection, an emergency place of safety was found and subject is now housed within a full time local authority care home. Partners Positive engagement with KA Leisure and local partners who are collectively seeking to set up a Hub Approach involving multi-service involvement to address emerging community issues which cut across all services. Funding is being applied for via Scottish Government’s Cashback For Communities Fund to set up a community wellbeing programme to address ASB within the 10-25 year old age group in North Ayrshire. This will be linked into supporting those age appropriate individuals involved, to gain access to identified employment vacancies within local partner agencies. Development of Information Sharing Agreement between, NHS, Local Authority and Police Scotland to allow details of those in the community who have suffered a Near Fatal Drugs Overdose to be passed to CWU officers. Ongoing work between, National Health Service, Local Authority to develop an Information Sharing Protocol to allow those in our communities who have suffered a near fatal drugs overdose to be passed to CWU officers to allow early engagement and intervention. 33

OFFICIAL—POLICE & PARTNERS 14 ROAD SAFETY—Drink/Drug Driving Source: Taken from Police Scotland Business Intelligence Portal Analytical Context: Drink/Drug driving offences are currently up 32.7% on the 5-year average. It should be noted that new legislation around drug driving came into effect in October 2019. So far this year there have been a total of 56 offences recorded which is a decrease on last year (n=63). Solely Drink Driving remains the most perpetrated offence followed by solely Drug Driving, however both are currently recording lower numbers than those reported last year. Local Action/Context: Road Safety remains a key priority in North Ayrshire with activity of both Road Policing and Divisional resources targeted towards the outcomes set in the Scottish Government Road Safety Framework – 2020 – 2030. Within the parameters of this is the ongoing determination to reduce casualties on the road and impact and disrupt those who use the road illegally in respect of criminal activities, and whilst disqualified and under the influence of drink and drugs. Underpinning the efforts of police in North Ayrshire is the PSOS Road Policing Division, National Calendar of Activity which allocates specific periods to target areas such as Speeding, Insurance and Drink and Drug offending. In addition, officers have been encouraged to engage with vulnerable groups such as cyclists, pedestrian and older drivers to educate against the dangers of using roads whilst not always equipped to do so. Campaigns such as these are supported by Safer Scotland Media Campaigns, literature and other forms of messaging. In terms of the 1st quarter of 2022, the number of persons caught either impaired through the consumption of controlled substances, or intake of alcohol is slightly below the previous year but remains at a level that is unacceptable for those using the roads. Driving whilst impaired causes an unnecessary danger to road users. The impact of the Section 5A drug driving legislation has seen a number of cases delayed by Laboratory back-logs and therefore those using the roads can continue to do so when disqualifications would be the most likely disposal. Officers from Ayrshire Road Policing will continue to target drivers who use the roads under the influence of drink or drugs and utilise the Medacx drug wipes that detect cannabis and cocaine users. 34

OFFICIAL—POLICE & PARTNERS 15 ROAD SAFETY—Speeding Source: Taken from Crime Management through ScOMIS Analytical Context: Speeding offences are currently down 2.4% on the 5-year average. The start of this year has also noted a slight decrease on the figures recorded last year (see chart opposite). The Road Policing Unit continue to carry out initiatives in specific areas based on information from local communities and Elected Members, which may influence where offences occur. Local Action/Context: Road Safety remains a key priority in North Ayrshire with activity of both Road Policing and Divisional resources targeted towards the outcomes set in the Scottish Government Road Safety Framework – 2020 – 2030. Speeding remains a key community concern with complaints of excessive speed present within areas of most communities. In North Ayrshire, Road Policing Units and Locality Policing Officers with specialist training in the operation of speed detection devices routinely deploy in those areas, roads and routes that generate the most concern. Locally, officers have listened to the community and spent time in areas such as Greenock Road, Largs, Fairlie Village, the A737 passing through Kilwinning and targeted speeding drivers and HGV’s using these routes without due care and attention. North Ayrshire Towns such as Ardrossan, Saltcoats and Burnhouse, all with historical speeding issues, remain very much on the radar for Road Policing Officers and attention has been given to the town centre of Irvine to enforce restrictions to protect pedestrians. In the first Quarter of 2022, a slight reduction in speeding detections has been recorded and Road Policing Officers remain vigilant at many locations to ensure those who do continue to speed are stopped and dealt with accordingly through direct measures. In the Summer months of 2022, a Islands Road Safety Action Plan remains ongoing with Road Policing Officers deploying to Millport and Arran to support local officers with a view to promoting safe driving on the islands to preserve the safety of vulnerable groups such as cyclists, walkers and tourists. 35

Appendix 1 Scottish Fire and Rescue Service Consultation Draft Strategic Plan 2022-2025 Response from North Ayrshire Council Background The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) is undertaking a Consultation on the draft Strategic Plan for 2022 - 2025 that outlines proposals for the forthcoming years to deliver a fire and rescue service that work towards the overall purpose, as outlined in the Fire and Rescue Framework for Scotland 2022: ‘To work in partnership with communities and with others in the public, private and third sectors on prevention, protection and response to improve the safety and wellbeing of people throughout Scotland.’ The Fire and Rescue Framework for Scotland 2022 sets out seven strategic priorities which the SFRS have a statutory duty to have regard to these when developing their Strategic Plan: • Prevention and Protection • Response • Innovation and Modernisation • Climate Change • Effective Governance and Performance • Partnership • People Consultation Request SFRS have asked for our views on the proposed strategic plan. Due to the summer recess and the Committee timetabling, this response has not yet been put to Elected Members on the Police and Fire and Rescue Committee. Accordingly, there may be additional matters that are submitted in this regard. This draft Strategic Plan 2022-2025 sets out what our broad ambitions will be over the next three years. The plan wishes to deliver the following broad outcomes that complement the strategic priorities of the referred to Fire and Rescue Framework for Scotland and are as narrated in the draft plan as:- 1. Community safety and wellbeing improves as we deploy targeted initiatives to prevent emergencies and harm. 43
Page 44
2. Communities are safer and more resilient as we respond effectively to changing risks. 3. We value and demonstrate innovation across all areas of our work. 4. We respond to the impacts of climate change in Scotland and reduce our carbon emissions. 5. We are a thriving organisation, use our resources responsibly and provide value for money to the public. 6. The experience of those who work for SFRS improves as we are the best employer we can be. 7. Community safety and wellbeing improves as we work effectively with our partners. Response The Council recognises that all public services need to ensure that they are fit to serve and meet the needs of local communities in accordance with the principles of the Christie Commission. The Council therefore welcomes the general proposals contained in the consultation document and would make the further following comments:- • The contribution of SFRS to Community Planning should continue and resources should be made available to deliver local outcomes and improvement plans. The Council welcomes the renewed commitment and focus on partnership working. • The preventative strategy is welcomed to improve outcomes for communities and protect people from harm. It is recognised that this is an increased area of demand with our aging population and the work being done by SFRS in assisting to keep people safe and prevent them from coming to harm is a valuable contributor to public service delivery. The Council fully supports the commitment to working with communities, partners and stakeholders to produce and disseminate safety advice and information effectively. Working in collaboration in this regard makes good sense. • Recognising the diversity of local areas and the specific needs of communities is vital. The Council welcomes that SFRS is building upon our knowledge of and responding to the changing risks and inequalities faced by our communities. This is further to the learning experiences from the COIVD-19 pandemic. • SFRS should continue to engage with local communities to build confidence in the service and establish and foster relationships with a view to the prevention agenda and supporting communities. The SFRS is a well-respected emergency service. • The objective of early intervention is welcomed as this will not only lead to reduction in demand but will build community capacity and responsibility for individual safety and property • It is noted that there is an objective of responding more efficiently responding to false fire alarm calls and improving road safety by reducing the number of 44

blue light journeys that are required to be made. This is welcomed given that this diverts the availability of services from other areas of potential need. The Council welcomes actions to tackle this issue on an ongoing basis. • The people strategy is welcomed. The contribution of SFRS as an employer in the local area makes a difference in the local economy and community as a whole and the continued availability and retention of quality local jobs should be a priority as a contributor to the area. The Council notes the commitment to paying the living wage for employees and developing and deploying new and more agile ways of working to protect the safety, wellbeing, physical and mental health of staff. • Governance and accountability should form a key part of monitoring the implementation of the strategic plan to ensure that outcomes are met. • Investment in IT and digital solutions is recognised as key in developing a modern fire and rescue service which is fit for purpose. The innovative use of technology, data and information to change how the organisation works is welcomed and is crucial in service delivery post Covid pandemic and beyond. • It is noted that the draft plan refers to strategically placing specialist resources in areas where there is a greater risk of flooding. This is something that was raised and considered in the previous response by this Council to the 2019- 2022 plan, and it is beneficial to see its inclusion again within the plan for the benefit of local communities that are affected by such. • The Council notes OUTCOME FOUR: Respond to the impacts of climate change in Scotland and reduce our carbon emissions. This is an important outcome in the context of the national and worldwide position. Accordingly, the commitment to investing further in the greening of fleet by acquiring zero emission vehicles where appropriate and supporting staff to adopt changes and behaviour to support more environmentally friendly working practices is welcomed. This is something that will be of interest to Elected Members on the Committee on an ongoing basis as to the progress thereon at a local and national level. Comments on current service provision We have an excellent working relationship with the Local Area Commander and his officers both at strategic and operational level. The positive level of engagement of SFRS at the Police Fire and Rescue Committee has been most welcome. The approach of localism is vital with local commanders being empowered to deliver services according to local needs and demands. In North Ayrshire we have excellent working relationships with SFRS which delivers well for our communities. Raymond Lynch Senior Manager Legal Services North Ayrshire Council 45

OFFICIAL 1 OFFICIAL REVIEW OF STRATEGIC POLICE PLAN Phase One Summary INTRODUCTION The Scottish Police Authority and Police Scotland jointly developed the Joint Strategy for Policing 2020 -2023, which was approved in March 2020. As 2022- 23 is the final year of delivery for the current plan, the Authority Chair and Chief Constable commissioned an initial review of the current Strategic Police Plan (SPP). To date the Review has been undertaken collaboratively by the Authority and Police Scotland on a desktop research basis, drawing on a range of evidence and intelligence that builds an informed position on progress made to deliver against the SPP, as well as changes in the current/future strategic landscape in which policing services will be delivered. This initial review of the SPP took place between January and June 2022. The next phase of the Review (Summer 2022) involves seeking the views of Local Authorities, COSLA, HMICS, Audit Scotland and Scottish Government on the findings and conclusions reached so far, and the proposed next steps of the Review. LEGISLATIVE CONTEXT The Authority is responsible for preparing (and keeping under review) a Strategic Police Plan, which sets out the main objectives for the provision of policing services in Scotland. Section 34 of the Police and Fire Reform (Scotland) Act 2012 sets out the legislative basis upon which the SPP is developed and kept under review. The current Strategic Police Plan, published in March 2020, consists of five overarching strategic outcomes, each of which is underpinned by three strategic objectives. Further narrative detail under each objective articulates the expected implementation approach and accompanying activities. 58

OFFICIAL 3 OFFICIAL FORMAT OF THIS REVIEW This initial phase of the review commenced in November 2021 through a joint working group of from the Authority and Police Scotland. This working group has overseen desktop research and analysis activity aligned to two main workstreams: (1) An assessment of current and future strategic risks, opportunities and challenges affecting, or likely to affect, policing in Scotland, based on a strategic horizon scanning exercise and a strategic landscape review; and (2) An evidence-based review of progress made to date to deliver the fifteen objectives set out in the current Plan. The findings from these two workstreams have informed an analysis of the current Plan, assessing its continued relevance and identifying any gaps or other areas that may require enhancement or re-emphasis. The working group reported its initial findings and conclusions to the Authority and Police Scotland Executive in June 2022 where there was agreement as follows: a) The review’s findings and conclusions to date were accepted; b) Prior to preparing a revised Strategic Police Plan, views from key stakeholders will be sought as part of an engagement exercise undertaken during the summer of 2022 to inform a draft revised Strategic Police Plan; c) The Authority, in consultation with the Chief Constable, will be asked to approve a draft revised Strategic Police Plan in the early autumn of 2022, followed up by broader public and stakeholder consultation on the draft document. It is the intention of the Authority and Police Scotland Executive to have in place an approved final Strategic Police Plan ahead of the financial year 2023/24 to enable Local Police Plans and Police Scotland’s Annual Police Plan 2023/24 to be reflective of the Strategic Police Plan. SUMMARY OF THE REVIEW’S FINDINGS 1. HORIZON SCANNING AND STRATEGIC LANDSCAPE REVIEW This part of the review considered i) the current Police Scotland National Strategic Assessment, ii) a horizon scanning and futures exercise and iii) the strategic, policy and legislative landscape in which a future, revised Strategic Police Plan would be delivered. 60
Page 86
OFFICIAL 4 OFFICIAL i) National Strategic Assessment Review The current National Strategic Assessment (NSA) was reviewed and the content approved by the Police Scotland Executive in November 2021 at its Strategic Operational Performance Board. An evidence based exercise reviewed current areas of focus in the NSA and determined if these are effectively covered within the current Strategic Police Plan, identifying any potential gaps or areas where additional emphasis was needed to inform the future strategic direction of policing in Scotland. The joint working group determined that the underpinning evidence base reflects the priorities for policing and organisational priorities; and that these are captured in their entirety within the Joint Strategy. The review of the NSA identified the following key areas which will likely be described in greater depth and have an elevated status in future assessments: Police Scotland has work underway to address each of these areas and takes a human rights based approach to policing across all key areas. A rights based policing framework is being developed and new strategies for Violence Against Women and Girls and Equality, Diversity and Inclusion are also under development. The Cyber Strategy is currently being implemented via the Policing in a Digital World Programme and there is a range of work ongoing to continue to focus on hate crime. The current Plan covers these themes in broad terms. ii) Horizon Scanning and Futures Approach Ongoing horizon scanning outputs from both organisations were brought together and used to form a view on current and future issues affecting, or likely to affect, the policing of Scotland in the coming years. These can be grouped under four key themes: Policing and Society; Equality, Diversity and Inclusion; Technology; and Environment and Sustainability. After analysis of projected trends had taken place a series of key recommendations were identified, as shown in the table below. These areas of change will influence policing in the period 2022-27. - Focus on continuing to provide meaningful insights and analysis to enable the service to adapt to trends such as evolving crime types and levels, demand due to mental health and vulnerability, demographics, relationships with seldom heard voices, children and young people and those who are digitally excluded, both internally and externally. - Continued focus on public health approaches, early intervention and preventative approaches. Cyber crime Hate crime Human rights based approaches to policing Violence against women and girls Equality, diversity and inclusion 61
Page 87
OFFICIAL 5 OFFICIAL - Emphasis on collaboration with blue light and local authority partners to enable shared approaches to key challenges and opportunities. - Adopting person-centred approaches that promote participation, that are trauma informed and respect individuals. - Continued monitoring of the both the national security and political landscapes to understand changing demand and priorities. - Improved understanding of how trust and confidence in policing is influenced by experiences in relation to protected characteristics, for example racism, misogyny and sexism, both internally and externally. - Analysis and response to key areas of changing demand highlighted in the Cost of Living report - Investment in and engagement on new technologies for policing in order to maximise policing capability whilst retaining legitimacy, trust and confidence from the public. - Focus on environmental sustainability, both internally with regards to infrastructure and colocation, and externally with a focus on potential new crime types and an evolving role for policing. - Monitoring of the impacts of the spending review and potential future budget allocations to inform SPA, SG and public discussions on policing demand, capability and capacity. - Working closely with Scottish Government and Local Authority colleagues on the development and implementation of the National Care Service to ensure policing demand challenges are considered and that policing is fully involved in developing the new model; - Colleague wellbeing, safety and protection to continue to be prioritised. iii) Strategic Landscape Review This strand focused on ensuring strategic alignment with important emerging and developing areas of policy and strategy including the spending review narrative, future legislation, programme for government priorities, and the recently published Justice Vision for Scotland 2022, Vision for a ‘Just, Safe and Resilient Scotland’. Overall there is good alignment between the Joint Strategy and the Justice Vision, with an outcomes-focused approach taken, and similar areas of focus/principles in place such as being evidence-led, person-centred, trauma- informed and working in partnership/collaboration. The new Vision articulates how all parts of the justice system must deliver person-centred services and enshrine trauma informed practice, which will be reflected in any revisions to the SPP. 62
Page 88
OFFICIAL 6 OFFICIAL 2. DELIVERING THE CURRENT STRATEGIC POLICE PLAN The current Plan consists of five strategic outcomes, underpinned by fifteen strategic objectives. An evidence review of progress made against each objective, drawing from a range of published information and internal Police Scotland documentation has been undertaken. The majority of evidence to inform this review was drawn from papers in the public domain, supported by recorded discussion at Authority Board and Committee meetings. The review has identified clear evidence of good progress made from 2020 to date to deliver on the ambitions set in the Joint Strategy for Policing (2020) under each of the strategic outcomes. This is despite the significant operational challenges of the Covid-19 pandemic and delivery of a safe and secure COP26 event. Delivery and decisions over the remaining period of the plan, will also be taken into account in this review of the Joint Strategy / Strategic Police Plan for 2023 onwards. CONCLUSIONS Consideration of the main findings from the review has led the Authority and Police Scotland Executive to agree the following conclusions, at this stage, in relation to the five Strategic Outcomes and underpinning Strategic Objectives and Plan narrative. Conclusions on the five Strategic Outcomes There is evidence of good progress made in 2020-2022 to deliver on the ambitions set by strategic outcomes; The outcomes remain relevant to current and future context for delivery and reflect the key focus areas identified; The outcomes are set at a broad strategic level which enables the capture of known and emerging focus areas during the period of delivery and are reflective of the newly published Scottish Government Justice Vision; The outcomes are currently shaping aligned plans for delivery in 2022/23 and the development of a 5 year Police Scotland delivery plan covering the period 2023-2028. Conclusions on the underpinning Strategic Objectives and Plan narrative The objectives remain broadly reflective and relevant to current and future delivery context with some amendments or enhancements to language required to reflect increased importance of key areas. 63
Page 89
OFFICIAL 7 OFFICIAL Strategic outcome Areas of emphasis Threats to public safety and wellbeing are resolved by a proactive and responsive police service. o Cyber crime and delivery of ‘Policing in a Digital World’, reflecting debates around legitimacy of policing in a private / online space and how the service responds to the continued significant escalation of cyber enabled and dependent crimes; o Violence against women and girls. The needs of local communities are addressed through effective service delivery. o Rights based policing approach; o Person centred and trauma informed policing, recognising areas of increased need and vulnerability, such as mental health. The public, communities and partners are engaged, involved and have confidence in policing. o Enhanced strategic approach to engagement and focus on building relationships with seldom heard people and communities. Our people are supported through a positive working environment, enabling them to serve the public. o Equality, diversity and inclusion (also Outcome 1); o Enhancing culture, leadership and wellbeing approaches aligned to the People Strategy refresh and colleague voice. Police Scotland is sustainable, adaptable and prepared for future challenges. o Delivery, with investment in technology and infrastructure to enable operational policing to continue to respond effectively to threat, risk and harm. NEXT STEPS The Authority, in consultation with the Chief Constable, will consider a draft of the Strategic Police Plan in September 2022. This draft document will reflect the review’s findings and conclusions, feedback obtained from policing partners during the summer of 2022, and outcomes from a Scottish Government review of the existing strategic police priorities. If approved by the Authority, the draft Strategic Police Plan will be issued to the public, communities and stakeholders later in 2022 as part of an accessible engagement exercise. This exercise will inform the development of a final Strategic Police Plan 2023-26 for consideration/approval by the Authority in late 2022/23 which, if approved, will be then be laid before Parliament. 64
