Three years ago, in response to a number of concerns over Scottish education, Prof Louise Hayward was asked by the Scottish government to conduct a review of qualifications and assessment.

Gilruth told MSPs she agreed with the Hayward report's recommendation that there should be less reliance on "high stakes final exams" but last year the Scottish government rejected the proposals.

Doug Hayward, from Fort Worth, Texas, had travelled to Belfast Castle with his wife on Wednesday morning after their flight to Edinburgh was cancelled.

His ex-boyfriend, Russell Hayward said Martyn "left the world exactly how he lived, the centre of attention".

Since his death, Martyn's mother and his friends, Mr Hayward and Mikey Keating, have also taken part in a 200-mile walk from the arena to Downing Street to insist Martyn's Law is introduced.
