Chief says Police Scotland is institutionally racist
The Chief constable of Police Scotland has admitted that The Force is institutionally racist and discriminatory.
Sir Iain Livingstone said prejudice and Bad Behaviour within The Force was " rightly of great concern".
He also said that acknowledging the issues exist was vital for real change to happen.
A review recently uncovered first-hand accounts of racism and sexism by serving officers.
It also heard about cases where staff had been " punished" for raising concerns.
Sir Iain's statement is believed to be The First of its kind by a police chief and comes amid ongoing controversy about policing culture in the UK.
But he stressed that his admission of institutional discrimination did not mean that individual officers and staff were racist or sexist and expressed pride and confidence in their work.
Speaking at a meeting of the Scottish Police Authority on Thursday morning, Sir Iain said: " It is right for me, as Chief Constable, to clearly state that Institutional Racism , sexism, misogyny and discrimination exist.
" Police Scotland is institutionally discriminatory and racist. Publicly acknowledging these issues exist institutionally is essential to our absolute commitment to championing equality and becoming an anti-racist service,
" It is also critical to our determination to lead wider change In Society . "
Sir Iain, who is To Retire on 10 August, admitted that people from different backgrounds or with different requirements " don't always get The Service that is their right".
He Said was also true for The Force 's own officers and staff.
Last Year Police Scotland launched a four-year strategy called " Policing Together" to tackle discrimination in The Force and in the community.
An assistant chief constable has since been appointed to oversee its delivery and a mandatory leadership programme to be rolled out to about 5,000 officers and staff to improve the existing workplace culture.
Police Scotland has faced A Number of concerns About That culture in recent years.
Some Women who are former officers have spoken about a " boys club" culture at all levels of Police Scotland .
One of them, former firearms officer Rhona Malone, won almost £1m in compensation from The Force after an employment tribunal found she had been victimised when she had raised concerns about sexism.
The Force is also Under Pressure due to an ongoing public inquiry into the death of Sheku Bayoh, who died after he was restrained by police police officers in Kirkcaldy.
The Inquiry is investigating the circumstances of the 31-year-old's death and whether race was a factor.
An independent review group established by Police Scotland to examine its record on equality, diversity, inclusion and Human Rights noted the " widespread view" that although discriminatory attitudes are still present in The Force , there had been a marked shift over The Past decade.
The review also found that efforts to improve Police Scotland 's culture are being held back by financial issues and pressure on frontline resources.
