The driver of a bin lorry which crashed into pedestrians in George Square and a 14-year-old girl injured in the accident have left hospital.
NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde have confirmed that the 57-year-old driver was discharged from Glasgow's Western Infirmary on Monday following two weeks of treatment. A 14-year-old girl who was injured in the crash was released from hospital today.
A 64-year-old woman remains stable at the Glasgown Royal Infirmary.
Glasgow City Council has previously said the names of the driver and crew will not be released publicly.
A police report into the tragedy will be considered by prosecutors at the end of next month.
Six people were killed when the bin lorry crashed in George Square on Monday, December 22.
Justice Secretary, Michael Matheson, said the decision on whether to hold a Fatal Accident Inquiry would be taken by the Lord Advocate in due course.
The funeral of teacher Stephenie Tait, 29, took place on Monday. The funerals of Erin McQuade, 18 and her grandparents Jack and Lorraine Sweeney took place in Dumbarton on Saturday.
The funerals of Jacqueline Morton, 51, and Gillian Ewing, 52, took place last week.
During an update delivered to MSPs at Holyrood, Mr Matheson read out the names of the six people who died and said a police investigation began immediately after the incident.
He said families of the victims will be kept informed of any developments and offered advice and support by specialist Crown Office staff.
Interim reports were sent by police to the Crown Office on December 24 and 28 and another will follow before the end of the month.
Mr Matheson was asked by Glasgow Kelvin MSP Sandra White, who was at the scene in the immediate aftermath of the crash, if the government could ensure any FAI was held as quickly as possible.
Mr Matheson said: "It is essential a proper and thorough investigation is carried out to find out what happened. It would be counter-productive to set artificial deadlines.
"The Crown Office must wait for all the necessary inquiries to be completed before it can come to a final decision.
"I have been advised that the Crown will consider that report, and by the end of February will provide further details as to the timescale for any further investigations that may be required."
First Minister Nicola Sturgeon also spoke in the chamber and described the crash as a "dreadful tragedy" which "cast a dark shadow over the festive period."
She added: "The response shows how much we owe to the emergency services and NHS staff all year round, but especially at times like these.
"I want to thank them sincerely for the contribution they make."
