Minister 'open to discussion' about fireworks ban
Scotland's Justice Secretary has said she is " open to discussion" about a ban on fireworks after organised clashes in Edinburgh.
Police and fire crews were attacked by youths with fireworks, petrol bombs and masonry on Sunday.
Angela Constance said ministers lacked the powers for a ban but she was " open-minded" about the idea.
Eight police officers suffered minor injuries in incidents in Edinburgh and Glasgow.
Ms Constance was speaking after City of Edinburgh Council leader Cammy Day said he would look at bringing in powers designed to create firework control zones.
He also said he supported a ban on the sale of fireworks to the General Public .
Speaking on The Bbc 's programme, the justice secretary praised Police Scotland and the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service for their efforts and addressed calls for an outright ban on the sale of fireworks to individuals.
" I'm open minded about it. Open to discussion. It's not within our powers for an outright ban but open to discussion, " Ms Constance said.
The Scottish Government brought in a New Law Last Year which heavily restricts the sale of fireworks and made it an offence to buy them for Young People .
But Ms Constance disputed claims by both The Fire Brigades Union (FBU) and the former children's commissioner for Scotland that cuts in education, outreach and preventative services contributed to violence against The Emergency services.
She told the programme: " This government continues to invest in preventative services, whether that's through The Cash back programme that supports over 33,000 Young People , whether it's the violence reduction framework, where there's investment of £2m.
" There is that emergency response to incidents of serious disorder and it's important that The Law is enforced. "
Speaking on Monday, Mr Day called for action to prevent a repeat of the violence.
He Said : " The Public Sale of fireworks needs to be reconsidered. Because if we don't Do Something that's quite drastic I would hate to think what happens The Next time.
