It is now getting ridiculous with the Scottish Government.
In my opinion this overruling of their own financial tests is because the Scottish Government against expert advice at the time nationalised the Ferguson Shipyard in 2019.
Neil Gray said that building a new ferry would not be ready until 2027 yet there is no guarantee that 802 will be completed by then and in service on the Clyde and Hebridean ferry routes.
