Meghan Gallacher: “This development does raise concerns about the impact on teaching resources and community cohesion.”

Cynics will be asking why the former health secretary Neil Gray was still claiming that everything was on track for the new Monklands Hospital just weeks before the Holyrood election.

Your government cannot claim that the NHS is its priority while patients are told to wait and prisoners are given certainty.

But John Swinney can still find the money for the swanky new HMP Glasgow, which has seen costs spiral to over £1 billion. This exposes the Nationalists warped priorities.

Given this broken promise, can you please confirm whether any formal risk to the approval or deliverability of the Monklands Hospital business case was recorded on any official Scottish Government risk register before polling day.
