Commenting on the launch of a Scottish Government consultation on extending the scope of Freedom of Information legislation, Liberal Democrat Finance spokesman Jeremy Purvis said:

"As far as possible the legislation should follow where public money is being spent.

"But quite frankly given the Scottish Government’s own very poor record in providing full and proper answers to FoI requests, it would be better if the Government itself improved on FoI issues."
