The Scottish National Party’s (SNP) government body has agreed to carry out a governance and transparency review, Scotland’s First Minister Humza Yousaf said on Saturday after an SNP National Executive Council (NEC) meeting.

But Yousaf denied claims that the ruling party is facing bankruptcy, telling reporters it’s “solvent” and “not close to bankruptcy.”
