William and Kate were 'made aware' of cross border travel restrictions, says Nicola Sturgeon

Nicola Sturgeon has suggested the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge travelled to Edinburgh despite their office being made aware of restrictions on cross-border movement. "The Scottish Government was advised about the intention to visit, and we made sure that the royal household were aware, as you would expect, of all of the restrictions in place in Scotland, so that could inform both the decision and the planning of the visit. "But I think any questions about that should be directed to the royal household," said The First Minister.
