The Police Pensions (Amendment) (Scotland) Regulations 2011
The Police, Public Order and Criminal Justice (Scotland) Act 2006 put in place powers to allow the Scottish Police Services Authority (SPSA) to appoint police members to work at the Scottish Crime and Drug Enforcement Agency (SCDEA), either through secondment arrangements or through direct recruitment. The Scottish Crime and Drug Enforcement Agency (Scotland) Regulations 2011 put in place the main regulatory framework that will apply to SCDEA directly recruited police members appointed by SPSA under paragraph 7(2)(c) of schedule 2 to the 2006 Act.
