Scotland's first minister, Alex Salmond, has said an independent Scotland would handle the country's oil and gas wealth "rather better" than the UK government. Speaking on the Today programme, Mr Salmond cited the example of Norway, where some oil and gas revenue is paid into a wealth fund. The SNP is releasing a paper today, highlighting what it says are the economic benefits of independence. Mr Salmond says Scotland has a healthy balance sheet in relation to tax revenue - when compared on average to the rest of the UK. He told presenter James Naughtie that there is still "all to play for" in the referendum on Scottish independence.
