Responding to reports that a grievance has been lodged against recently appointed Chief Constable Jo Farrell by one of her own leadership team, Scottish Liberal Democrat justice spokesperson Liam McArthur MSP said:

"The early years of the single national force were dogged by errors and a revolving door at senior level, all of which risked undermining the hard work of officers and staff. Police Scotland must not slip back into bad old habits.

"This grievance must be swiftly resolved so that the senior leadership team are all pulling in the same direction.

"At a time when the police are having to do more with less, those at the top cannot afford to be distracted from the challenges of keeping communities safe and supporting officers and staff."
