(S4W-23740) Michael Matheson: The information is not held centrally. However, the Mental Welfare Commission (MWC) publishes a statistical monitoring report each year. The most recent report was published in October 2014: http://www.mwcscot.org.uk/media/203499/mha_monitoring_2013_2014__3__final.pdf Page 43 (table 7.1) of the report shows that 591, 561 and 654 place of safety orders were notified to the MWC in 2011-12, 2012-13 and 2013-14 respectively. The MWC states that, due to system changes, it is only reporting at ‘a national Scotland level’ for 2013-14. The MWC monitoring reports for the years 2011-12 and 2012-13 do provide a breakdown of the place of safety orders by seven legacy police force areas. http://www.mwcscot.org.uk/media/94661/mha_2011-12__2_.pdf (page 55) and:http://www.mwcscot.org.uk/media/138265/mha_monitoring_report_final_25_sept_2013.p df (page 49).

Alison McInnes (North East Scotland) (Scottish Liberal Democrats): To ask the Scottish Government how many (a) adults and (b) children have been taken to a police station under mental health legislation in each of the last three years, broken down by legacy force or division; what (i) guidance and (ii) procedures are in place for doing so, and what services are provided for those detained. (S4W-23741) Michael Matheson: The information requested is not held centrally. As stated in the answer to question S4W-23740 on 16 January 2015, the only statistical information available is provided in the Mental Welfare Commission’s statistical monitoring report. Training and guidance in relation to police engagement with those suffering mental ill-health is on- going and Police Scotland has engaged widely with partner organisations at local and national levels, including the Scottish Association for Mental Health, NHS Health Scotland’s Suicide Prevention Programme and the Mental Welfare Commission for Scotland, to develop standard operating procedures which will introduce consistent practice throughout Scotland and clarify the powers for officers and the decision-making process to be followed. New training packages have been developed and scheduling of the training for over 22,000 officers is on-going. This new training will support the training already in place. Police Scotland is also collaborating with partners to develop early and effective interventions and preventative approaches to reduce demand on critical services and improve the service to those experiencing mental health crises. An example is the community triage scheme to be piloted from January 2015. This will involve mental health officers based centrally on duty who have the skills to provide on the spot advice and support. Responsibility for the delivery of healthcare in custody has now transferred from the police to the NHS.
