I find it utterly reprehensible that personal information was discarded in such a way, and for such a long time.

There is no doubt that the buck must stop with someone.

Opposition at Holyrood are trying to blame Shona Robison MSP for a situation she was informed, in writing, had been dealt with appropriately.

I would find it most helpful if our local “top performing health authority” could answer one very important question — who wrote the letters to Shona Robinson assuring her that all confidential material had been removed from the site? — Confused.

But patients using the NHS are entitled to expect a certain level of respect and confidentiality.

The thought that these documents were discovered years after the building was sold to a private developer and that Shona Robison knew about it is nothing short of a disgrace.

Shona Robison should do the honourable thing and resign. — Political Watcher.

We would get up at 6am, make up our meat paste pieces and head off to either Myrekirk or Perrie Street to get the bus. By the time it came at 7.15 the sandwiches were already eaten. There was always a mad scramble to get on the bus to get a seat and an even bigger fight to get a luggy and a black bucket from the back of the bogie on the farm. By lunchtime we were bored and would wait till “Frankie” arrived with his ice cream van.

Then we would walk the long way home via Liff, Fowlis and Denhead of Gray heading back to Charleston.

I remember one year the berry pickers went on strike because we wanted 3p a pound rather than the two and a half pence on offer.

My aunt had a hut up in Rattray and we all went up to Blairgowrie to stay with her and go berry picking during the day and to the cinema in the evening whilst the adults went to the pub. Great memories. — Derek Taylor.

That’s not true for people like myself. I was pensioned off after working 40 years, due to ill-health.

I am 57 and have an income of £7000 gross, including a small work pension.

I had £88 tax taken off in the last two months. Even after a rise I am on a lower rate than last year. With the £600 increase in personal tax my pension will still be lower. Shame on you, Labour Party. — Ex Labour Voter.

I have a question for them — why did they remain silent on the matter when it was first put before Parliament more than a year ago in Gordon Brown’s last budget as Chancellor?

The implications of the move were obvious even then. — Curious.

When dealers are caught the penalty is not severe enough. We need a strong deterrent like as are handed out abroad. If dealers got a good dose of that, maybe then we would see a big change in Dundee. — Britain.

But her party’s disastrous handling of the issue doesn’t get away from the fact that the Scottish Labour leader is correct.

Her demands for a swift resolution is a view shared by many ordinary Scots and business leaders.

I also welcome Liberal Democrat leader Nicol Stephen’s willingness to back a referendum vote if the Calman Commission reports back favourably. Tory Annabel Goldie should follow suit.

Sir Tom Hunter argues that deferring a vote for that long will only harm the country’s interests.

This issue cannot be left to run and run for the next three and a half or four years. — Politico.

The same day this incident occurred, around £5000 damage was caused to two of my family’s cars, which were parked outside my house in Kenmore Terrace, by Dundee, by paintstripper, yet no appeal for information was requested regarding this.

What are taxes paid for if such a small incident is investigated deeply and the vandalism to my cars appears to be of no interest?

If anyone has any details regarding this incident, then I would be grateful if they forwarded any information they have to the police. — K. S.
