SNP minister reveals hindsight regret over crisis-hit ferry yard contracts

Fiona Hyslop has admitted "there was also going to be a challenge" with handing two contentious ferries contracts to the Ferguson Marine shipyard.

The article from The Scotsman discusses the ongoing issues surrounding the construction of two ferries at Ferguson Marine in Scotland. The Scottish Government, through its Wellbeing Economy Secretary Neil Gray, has expressed regret over the significant delays and cost overruns in the project. Originally intended to be completed by 2018, the ferries, known as Hull 801 (Glen Sannox) and Hull 802, have seen their costs escalate from an initial £97 million to over £300 million. The delays have been attributed to various factors including design issues, construction challenges, and the financial collapse of the Ferguson Marine shipyard, which was subsequently nationalized. The government has acknowledged the frustration felt by island communities dependent on these ferries for essential services, and while there is no fixed completion date, efforts are being made to ensure the ferries are delivered as soon as possible. The article also touches on the political implications, with opposition parties criticizing the SNP-led government's handling of the project.
