There are well established procedures for official engagement with parliamentary committees which have been followed. The Scottish Government is aware of the ongoing consideration of the report as set out in minutes of the Public Audit Committee's meetings on 19 and 26 March 2014. The Scottish Government gave evidence to the committee on 18 December 2013 and provided further correspondence and answered further queries from the Committee following the evidence session.

I am also aware that the Scottish Police Authority wrote to the Public Audit Committee on 26 March 2014 following the publication of the board papers to update them on progress on a number of key strategic issues the committee had shown an interest in.
