Louise White asks if it is time to lift the alcohol ban at Scottish football matches.

The Scottish Football Association has said it will seek the views of fans on whether alcohol should be sold at stadiums during matches. It said it wanted to "build a case" in favour of lifting the ban. Police Scotland Chief Constable Stephen House said he would "enter into formal discussions", if an independent consultation finds widespread support for the idea. Scottish Labour is campaigning for the alcohol ban to be dropped and such a move is also favoured by the Scottish Conservatives. The Scottish Government has said it has "no plans" to change the policy.
