I know it was at her mother-in-law’s. I’m just struggling with the idea that a 24-foot motorhome spent two years in the family without ever becoming a topic of conversation.
The SNP's former treasurer has clarified when he found out that the party had bought a luxury motorhome.
Colin Beattie, who was in the role for a total of nearly 20 years, was asked by journalists whether he knew about and had signed off the purchase.
"No, I didn't know about that," he said.
He later said although he did not know about the transaction at the time of purchase, he found out about it in the 2021 annual accounts.
Mr Beattie quit as treasurer the day after he was arrested by police as part of an ongoing investigation into the party's finances.
He was subsequently released without charge pending further investigation.
The Niesmann and Bischoff vehicle, which can retail for more than £100,000, was seized by police from outside the home of former SNP chief executive Peter Murrell's mother in Dunfermline.
The motorhome was removed on 5 April - the same morning that Mr Murrell became the first senior party figure to be arrested in the probe.
