Parliament to Probe Health Secretary's £11k iPad Bill from Morocco Holiday
- Parliament to investigate health secretary Michael Matheson's £11k iPad roaming bill racked up during holiday to Morocco
- Matheson initially claimed iPad only used for work, but later admitted his sons had used it to watch football
- Matheson referred himself to Scottish Parliament Corporate Body (SPCB) which said it would investigate if expenses claim was proper
- SPCB could refer Matheson to standards committee, which could remove his entitlement to expense reimbursements
- First Minister Humza Yousaf has backed Matheson, but opposition leaders accuse him of misleading parliament and the public
