A FATAL accident inquiry into the deaths of two young women killed after being struck by an uninsured driver will be held next year.

A preliminary hearing will be held on December 2 ahead of the FAI into the deaths of Mhairi Convy, 18, and Laura Stewart, 20, both from Cumbernauld.

The inquiry is scheduled for February 10 next year at Glasgow Sheriff Court.

Both died after being struck by a Range Rover driven by William Payne in North Hanover Street, Glasgow, on December 17 2010.
