The Scottish Government’s response to the outcome of an inquiry into the procurement of two ferries has been criticised.
The inquiry was launched by the Rural Economy and Connectivity Committee in 2019 after it emerged that hulls 801 and 802, being built at the Ferguson Marine Engineering Limited (FMEL) shipyard in Port Glasgow, would be delivered late and at more than double their initial cost.
