Police officers responding to firearms incidents depend on rapid and reliable communication when dealing with potentially life-threatening situations. Police Scotland (formerly Northern Constabulary) covers a massive and remote area of the UK – the Local Authority Region of Highland and the Island Authorities of Orkney, Shetland and Western Isles. With teams of officers spread over a wide area, every second counts in answering reports of gun crime. That’s why Police Scotland rely on PageOne Connect. Constable Graham Findlater, Firearms Instructor, explained: “Communication is of the essence. We must understand the nature of the problem, assess the level of response and ensure officers are contacted and can respond.”
