A press release is, I am told, to be issued tomorrow after First Minister’s question time. Is it not always the case that the SNP Government cares more about the optics than the substance?

The Government cannot continue to hide away behind closed doors on an issue of such importance. I urge ministers to allow a statement on the Cass report next week. Parliament should be treated with respect, and so should the people of Scotland.
