Looking fwd to 1st time Swinney or Gilruth appear before Committee arguing that eg £10m grant to local authorities ring fenced for childcare can only be spent on childcare & not the general objects of the local authority contrary to the new SNP definition of ring fencing.
John Swinney confirms The SNP are being investigated by HMRC about fraudulent VAT rebates. That would mean that the public could now also be the victims of SNP fraud… oof.
