What is not included in the three priority types of SPR reports?

In the context of Scotland Police procedures, the three priority types of Subjecting Police Reports (SPR) typically revolve around proactive measures taken when a person is arrested or detained. These types often include documentation that directly correlates to the immediate legal actions required during and after the custody of an individual.

The three priority types are generally focused on the apprehension and processing of individuals within the criminal justice framework, thus reports like summons warrants, custody reports, and undertaking reports are crucial. A summons warrant indicates the requirement for a person to attend court; a custody report contains vital information about the individual’s arrest and the circumstances surrounding it; and an undertaking report discusses any agreements made by the accused regarding their future conduct or court appearances.

A witness report, while important in the broader spectrum of legal processes, does not fall under the priority reports specifically detailing immediate actions taken during custody or arrest. It serves a different function, mainly involving external parties outside the core custody process, which is why it is not included among the priority types of SPR reports. This emphasizes the focus on reports that are critical to the immediate legal proceedings involving detained individuals.
