Evidence Review into Public Experience and Confidence of Body Worn Video in a Policing Context

Rapid research project for Police Scotland/Scottish Police Authority

CRISP researchers have produced a commissioned research report to support the provision of Body-Worn Video (BWV) Cameras in policing in Scotland.  The research was commissioned by Police Scotland, the Scottish Police Authority (SPA) and the Scottish Institute for Police Research (SIPR) in autumn 2021.  The report captures existing knowledge about the experiences and implications of the police use of BWV, with a particular focus on contemporary oversight and accountability structures and mechanisms.
