How Spending Review will shape Scottish priorities for years to come

Increased spending for Scotland on defence, computing and the development of carbon-capture technology have been promised in the chancellor's Spending Review.

Rachel Reeves has found £250m for the Royal Navy's nuclear submarine base on the Clyde, £750m to bring the most powerful supercomputer in the UK to Edinburgh, and funding for the Acorn Project in St Fergus.

Acorn would take greenhouse gas emissions and store them under the North Sea, in a process known as carbon capture and storage (CCS).

The news comes as Reeves announces the budgets for all UK government departments over the next few years.
