Humza Yousaf has outlined "radical" plans for an independent Scotland to have a written constitution - with the First Minister saying such a document could protect workers' rights to strike and guarantee healthcare that is "free at the point of need".
Mr Yousaf also made clear the SNP-led Scottish Government would want a new constitution for the country to rule out Scotland being a home for nuclear weapons.
With a final constitution only being developed after Scotland has voted for independence - and not coming into force until after people have backed it in a referendum - the First Minister and SNP leader conceded he could not say for certain what would be in such a document.
