Response

The Scottish Government acted purely as a conduit for information between the Council, the club, the UK Government and the European Commission who consider any State aid complaints. The Commission assessed whether the measures in question were carried out in compliance with State aid rules. Based on the information they received, the competent services of the Director General for Competition in the European Commission have not pursued the matter further.
