Expense probe at agency

An investigation is under way after staff at the Scottish Government's jobs agency breached policy by withdrawing cash from corporate credit cards for their own use.

Seven Scottish Enterprise staff withdrew more than £10,000 for personal use.

Staff are only allowed to use the cards for business expenses and all bills are supposed to be settled with receipts.

The unofficial transactions will be paid back by staff.
