EXCLUSIVE: In an interview with the Record, the First Minister said Ewing voting to bring down a Green Minister is a 'very serious matter'.
Humza Yousaf has said disciplinary proceedings against a rebel SNP MSP who voted to sack a Government Minister are ongoing.
Ewing, a former Cabinet Secretary, could lose the whip after backing a Tory motion of no confidence in Green MSP Lorna Slater. He was expected to be sanctioned, but the death of his mother Winnie is said to have paused any action. He added: “There's not been a resolution to that issue. Voting against a government minister on a vote of confidence and voting with the Conservatives in that regard is a serious matter. So, the group will meet to discuss that and it's an internal matter which I don't intend to comment [on] anymore.”
