Summary
Police Scotland’s leadership is getting a major refresh as three new officers take key roles: Stuart Houston steps in as temporary Deputy Chief Constable, Phil Davison moves up to Assistant Chief Constable, and Lynn Ratcliff secures a permanent spot after completing leadership training. The moves follow a rigorous selection process and aim to boost effectiveness ahead of summer, with the Chief Constable praising the new team for driving safer communities and less crime — while honoring outgoing leaders Steve Johnson and Emma Bond.
