Scotland on Sunday

BBC Scotland is set to spurn renewed calls to hand over transcripts and footage of the Holyrood tapes to the Fraser inquiry despite accusations the corporation was following "double standards" by withholding the material. The BBC and the Fraser inquiry into the soaring cost of the Scottish parliament have been at loggerheads after broadcasters refused to submit unseen interviews with then First Minister Donald Dewar and controversial architect Enric Miralles, who have since died. The Scottish Conservatives have accused the BBC of "double standards" over its refusal to hand over untransmitted interviews to the Holyrood inquiry. They said the decision contrasted sharply with co-operation given to the Hutton inquiry, where the corporation handed over a transcript of an untransmitted interview with the government expert Dr David Kelly, whose death led to the Hutton investigation.
