Police (Ethics, Conduct and Scrutiny) (Scotland) Act 2025

Governance of the Police Investigations and Review Commissioner

156.This part of the Act adds an advisory board to the PIRC structure, to advise as to the corporate governance of the PIRC.

Section 20: Advisory board to the Commissioner

157.This section inserts a new section 46B in to the 2006 Act. It requires the PIRC to establish a statutory advisory board. By subsection (1), the PIRC must establish and maintain it.

158.The board is to advise as to corporate governance and administration and not on the operational work of the PIRC, which is reflected in subsection (2).

159.The members are to be appointed by the Scottish Ministers (subsection (3)). The PIRC is not able to appoint or terminate members, which is provided for in subsection (4), by requiring a decision to appoint or terminate a member of the Board to be made independently of the PIRC. The procedure of the Board is for the PIRC to determine (subsection (7)), as is the remuneration and allowances of the members of the Board (subsection (6)), subject to the approval of Scottish Ministers.
