We take your questions for the leader of the SNP John Swinney.

WEIGHT LOSS JABS
Fewer than 800 Scots have received jabs for weight loss on the NHS, despite them being approved for use three years ago, BBC News has found. The president of the Royal College of Physicians says the lack of availability of weight loss jabs on the NHS in Scotland is a national disgrace - do you agree?

NATIONAL SERVICE
Labour's former armed forces minister Al Carns and Conservative Tom Tugendhat are promoting research that suggests young people would be willing to do a year of National Paid Service. Another poll suggests there were no circumstances in which the public would fight for Britain; this comes despite calls for national conversation on defence, rising threats from our enemies and in the same poll support for higher defence spending.
Should we bring back National Service?

DOG AWARD
A working dog from the Scottish Highlands has been named animal of the year by a charity for hunting down an invasive marine creature called the carpet sea squirt.
