SNP leadership candidate Ash Regan has called for a “readiness thermometer” to be installed so that members of the public can track progress towards Scottish independence.
Ms Regan said it would include a dial which would move when plans were put into place on issues such as on the currency or defence.
Speaking at the SNP hustings in Glenrothes, Ms Regan suggested the “thermometer” would help build people’s confidence in independence.
She said: “There’s an idea that I want to put to you, it’s not my idea but the group that came up with it have said that we should be using it in the campaign .
“And it’s the idea of a ‘readiness thermometer’, I don’t know if anyone’s seen that idea yet.
“So, the idea is you can have an actual installation which is a readiness thermometer, we could put it up in Glasgow or in Edinburgh, and it can be outside and it has a dial on it that moves.
“So when we’ve made all the plans for the currency for instance, or we’ve set up how we’re going to do something to do with the defence, or whatever it is, that dial will move and it will inch forward.
“And the media can look it, everyone can look at it, and it builds that confidence with the public so that when we get up to the 100 per cent, everybody in Scotland knows we’ve solved all these problems.”
