Exclusive: Neither CMAL or Transport Scotland asked around shipyards to see if restarting the construction of the Hull 802 would be cheaper or quicker despite Neil Gray admitting it was not value for money to keep building it at Ferguson Marine.
New questions have been raised about the Scottish Government’s decision to push ahead with the construction of Hull 802 after it was revealed that they had not approached other shipyards for quotes about building a replacement. Economy secretary Neil Gray announced last month he was using a rare ministerial directive to ignore civil servants who said it was not value for money.
