Move comes after it emerged deputy first minister, John Swinney, faced cross-party censure
John Swinney, Scotland’s deputy first minister, has agreed to release his government’s legal advice on Alex Salmond’s court action after facing cross-party censure in Holyrood.
Swinney told the Holyrood committee investigating the Salmond scandal on Monday night it would get the advice on Tuesday afternoon, after it emerged all four opposition parties would back a Conservative no-confidence motion in him tabled for later on Tuesday.
