"Buchan called on Justice Minister Cathy Jamieson to order an independent investigation into the structure and function of the Scottish police service to ensure it was 'fit for purpose' in the 21st century. He said that despite unprecedented change - including the development of anti-social behaviour and domestic violence units, the need to monitor sex offenders and the new al-Qaeda terrorist threat - the service was still operating to a system that was put in place decades ago."
