Hartley said: “The suggestion is he can’t play with the current tag he has got but I am sure he could. We are just waiting for confirmation.
“He is available for selection but there is no guarantee he will play. We need to look at where he plays, at what time he leaves here, traffic, travelling and if he gets an injury.
“He stays in the central belt so there are times when the journey could take longer than an hour and a half.
“It is something I have thought about and spoken to Paul about. We understand he has a curfew and we don’t want him to break it.
“He will still be available but it is something I will need to look at between now and the end of the season.
“The last game of the season is definitely one he can play in because of the early kick-off but we have to look at other things as well.
“There are all sorts of things that could happen, even heavy traffic or his car could break down and these are things we have to look at. The last thing we want to see is Paul getting into trouble because he misses his time zone.”
