The candidates vying to be Scottish Labour's next leader will be taking part in a television debate next week.

Rebecca Curran said: "This will be the first head-to-head televised debate between the two candidates and we'll try to get them to address the issues that are considered most important to our viewers."

27 February result

Voting for the new Labour leader will begin on Tuesday, 9 February.

The contest was triggered after Richard Leonard resigned as leader in mid-January, saying it was in the best interests of the party for him to stand down.

Mr Leonard said he believed speculation about his leadership had become a "distraction".

Ms Lennon and Mr Sarwar are both MSPs and are the only candidates battling to take on the job.

The ballot of Labour Party members and affiliates will run until Friday, 26 February, and the result will be declared the day after on Saturday, 27 February.
