The Dundee Police and Improvement Consolidation Act 1882 (45 & 46 Vict. c. 185) is an act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom that consolidated enactments relating to the policing, sanitation and civic improvement of the burgh of Dundee, and empowered the Dundee Police Commissioners to issue debenture stock.
The act recited that the burgh had, in 1851, adopted the Police of Towns (Scotland) Act 1850 (3 & 4 Will. 4. c. 77) (with the exception of its water-supply clauses), and that this adoption had subsequently been amended and extended by a series of general and local acts. It provided that these enactments (the "special acts") should, as regards the burgh, be repealed and their provisions consolidated, altered, extended and amended, and that various provisions of the General Police and Improvement (Scotland) Act 1862 (25 & 26 Vict. c. 101) should be incorporated with the new act.
