Commenting as the Scottish Government drops its plans to publish all public notices online, Liberal Democrat Media spokesman Iain Smith said:

"This is a welcome about-face from the SNP.

"Keeping public notices in local papers ensures that they will be read by those they are intended for.

"Local newspapers need the valuable finance that public notices provide.

"I am pleased that the Government has for once done what Parliament told it to."
