A government agency heavily involved in the disastrous Ferguson ferry contract is making preparations to build seven new vessels.
Caledonian Maritime Assets Limited (CMAL) was criticised by MSPs for its role in the delays and the huge bill for two ferries being built at the Ferguson shipyard in Port Glasgow. The original £97 million contract is expected to eventually cost the public purse more than £200 million, while the yard went into administration before it was bought by the Scottish government.
