First Minister's residence Bute House '˜needs £300k of repairs'
The official residence of the First Minister in Edinburgh requires around £300,000 of repair work, it has been reported.
Bute House, a striking 18th century town house in Charlotte Square, was closed to staff in October last year after routine monitoring revealed urgent ceiling repairs were required in the A-listed building.
Nicola Sturgeon has since been staying overnight in a hotel, when her schedule requires, while meetings of the Scottish Cabinet have been taking place at St Andrew’s House.
