2:03Now PlayingMichael Matheson has resigned as Scottish health secretary after a scandal involving an £11,000 iPad data roaming bill.
A cross-party body in charge of the Scottish parliament launched an investigation in November after Mr Matheson took the parliamentary iPad with him on a week-long visit to Morocco with his family around Christmas in 2022.
His roaming charges for the iPad - not phone calls - were initially paid for by taxpayers after Mr Matheson claimed he ran up the eye-watering invoice undertaking constituency work during the trip.
