Daily commuting treated as work
Not 2 years? Indeed, since they know it's permanent, wothdrawn now?
Civil servants whose jobs have been moved out of Edinburgh are being allowed to treat some of their journeys to the office as work.
(They) can count the phone calls, e-mails and paperwork they do while commuting by train to Glasgow as part of their day.
The 150 staff of Transport Scotland relocated to Glasgow last year. Of these, 57 were having their extra travel expenses paid for.
A Scottish Executive spokeswoman said "The travel expenses will not be available to relocated staff indefinitely, and will be withdrawn after five years."
