   McLetchie in storm over airport expansion

   DAVID McLetchie, the Scots Tory leader, was last night at the centre of a   
   conflict of interests row over Edinburgh Airport.   
      
   According to a newspaper report, a complaint from a member of the public is   
   on its way to the parliament?s standards commissioner, Dr Jim Dyer.   
      
   It alleges that Mr McLetchie failed to declare that the law firm, Tods   
   Murray, of which he is a partner, was advising the Royal Highland and   
   Agricultural Society, which is an opponent of the proposed expansion of the   
   airport. In December, Mr McLetchie signed a parliamentary motion rejecting   
   the expansion, which would force the RHAC to move from its headquarters at   
   Ingliston.   
      
   Last night a spokesman for Mr McLetchie said he had done nothing wrong.
