The first phase was an analysis of existing recruitment and selection statistics from the eight Scottish police forces. Phase Two was a study of two police forces using a case study methodology: Identified issues were then circulated using the Delphi approach to all eight forces. There was a consensus that both society and the police are changing, and that disparate functional maps of a police officer's job have been developed. It was generally recognized that recruitment and selection are important, but time-consuming, aspects of police activity. Wide variations were found in practices across the eight forces, including the use of differential pass marks for the SET. Independent assessors have identified anomalies in the test indicating that it is both ambiguous and outdated in part, with differences in the readability of different versions that compromises comparability.

The SOA brings together the priorities of the Fife Community Plan and the contributions to the delivery of the outcomes by each of the Community Planning Partners. The Fife Partnership has agreed that this first SOA will be submitted on behalf of the whole partnership. Scope of the Agreement The agreement covers all the priorities of the Community Plan including local authority services, NHS Fife, Fife Constabulary, CVS Fife representing the Third Sector, Fife’s Further Education Colleges and Scottish Enterprise. The Fife Partnership developed its first Community Plan in 2000. Since then we have undertaken two revisions. The first revision in 2004, followed an extensive review and scenario planning process. The process included extensive research, identification of key influences and focus group and expert interviews involving over 200 individuals to draw out the implications of the research. The scenarios were then tested at a conference, the Community Planning Gathering. For the 2007 revision we took stock of our achievements to date and made a few changes to the plan. We focused on the work of Fife’s five strategic partnerships. Since 2004 the partnerships have undertaken extensive consultation and revised their strategies to help deliver the community plan outcomes and to respond to changing national priorities.

It complements the Landscape Character Type descriptions of the 2019 dataset. The original character assessment reports, part of a series of 30, mostly for a local authority area, included a “Background Chapter” on the formation of the landscape. These documents have been revised because feedback said they are useful, despite the fact that other sources of information are now readily available on the internet, unlike in the 1990’s when the first versions were produced. The content of the chapters varied considerably between the reports, and it has been restructured into a more standard format: Introduction, Physical Influences and Human Influences for all areas; and Cultural Influences sections for the majority. Some content variation still remains as the documents have been revised rather than rewritten, The information has been updated with input from the relevant Local Authorities. The historic and cultural aspects have been reviewed and updated by Historic Environment Scotland. Gaps in information have been filled where possible.
