Following lobbying by the Scottish Police Federation, ACPOS has agreed to increase the Special Constabulary Reward in Scotland by £100 to £1100 per annum.

I hope now that they've been found guilty that the court gives the remaining £15k to Ms McDonagh. I think people get confused because under Lottery rules Camelot will not pay out unless you have the winning ticket.
