I have called on the Scottish Government to follow plans in England to give every state-funded school a defibrillator.
Recent tragic incidents in our schools should act as a reminder to the Scottish Government that defibrillators considerably enhance the chances of survival and should be treated no differently to other life-saving appliances such as fire extinguishers.
The Scottish Government cannot get away with passing the buck on to local authorities whose budgets have been cut to the bone by the SNP.
