Kenny MacAskillJustice Secretary Kenny MacAskill will be taking your calls on Friday's Morning Extra.

Two of the most talked-about subjects on Morning Extra are sentencing and reform of Scotland's laws on alcohol. So we thought it was about time we got Mr MacAskill into the studio to answer your questions directly.

It's a timely visit what with the Scottish Government's criminal justice bill currently making its way through parliament and new laws coming into force this September to tackle Scotland's booze culture.

So call Kenny MacAskill with your questions on 0500 92 95 00 from 8am tomorrow. We're on-air from 9, but do call early as it's likely to be a busy one!
