So clearly this Scottish politician has no idea of the work done by a few police forces "south of the Border", which seem to have successfully moved to 03 numbers without any adverse effects.

More information on Robert Gordon who is the Director-General for Justice & Communities for the Scottish Government here.

Mr Gordon's response to the Audit Committee seemed to suggest that. See this post.

Crime hotline future under threat

A helpline for people to report low-level crime in Sheffield will not become a countywide service, putting its future under threat.

The 101 number was designed to ease pressure on the emergency services.

But the service was delivered a blow when the Home Office stopped providing funding in March.

There were hopes of rolling out the service across South Yorkshire to secure its future but local councils said it was not financially possible.
