Following upset over a two-metre social distancing rule for venues, Scotland's First Minister has asserted the country's commitment to culture.

Nicola Sturgeon said she hoped pilot events in England would also inform a return to higher capacity activities in Scotland.

She said culture will be "at the very heart" of the economic recovery from Covid-19 if the SNP is returned to power. No other details were forthcoming.
