Police public call systems ‘running smoothly’ despite internal glitch

Problems in Police Scotland’s Dundee control room are not affecting the reporting of incidents, the force has said.

A technical glitch has caused issues with the control room’s internal system, but has not impacted on calls from the public.

Superintendent Roddy Newbigging said: “We would like to reassure the public that all 999 and 101 systems across Scotland are running smoothly.

“There is an issue with an internal system within the Dundee control room and we are working to rectify the issue as quickly as possible.

“Officers are being tasked and deployed as normal and no other areas or systems are impacted.”
