We've got the builders in...

The Evening News reveals:
"SCOTTISH Parliament bosses will have to fork out £10,000-a-day to use The Hub as a temporary meeting place until the roof problem at Holyrood is fixed.
And they will be ferried up and down the Royal Mile by shuttle bus at a cost of £1500 a week."

£10K per day will soon add up. I hope they are properly covered. But it doesn't sound like it:

"Asked if the parliament hoped to reclaim the cost of the parliament's temporary relocation from whoever was found to be at fault for the beam problem, the spokesman said: "We are not in the business of speculating. Our focus is on resolving the situation safely and ensuring that the business of parliament continues."
