Question
To ask the Scottish Government whether it will provide an update on the public information costs associated with Scotland’s Future: Your guide to an Independent Scotland.

When Scotland’s Future was published, I announced a budget of £450,000 to ensure the public were made aware of how to access information about the Scottish Government’s proposals for independence.
