A Scottish local authority has taken emergency measures to ensure residents in the city are able to cast their vote amid a nationwide delay in the delivery of postal votes.
The City of Edinburgh Council said it is taking urgent steps to open a special polling booth at the City Chambers from Friday for those who have not yet received a ballot and will not be home next week.
Locals who are yet to receive their ballot can have one reissued at the City Chambers or can even cast their vote there and then ahead of July 4.
