Probe into gay adoption row
EDINBURGH'S most senior social worker will investigate a complaint by a couple who claim to have been forced to give up their grandchildren for adoption by two gay men.
Chief social work officer at Edinburgh City Council, Michelle Miller, will reportedly lead an investigation into the complaint.
A city council spokesman reportedly said officials had received the family's complaint and it would be assessed by Miss Miller and a team of staff dedicated to dealing with public grievances.
The family are expected to discuss a legal fight, bankrolled by an unnamed Scottish millionaire, with lawyers later in this week.
The council has 28 days to review the complaint.
