Public Audit Committee

Section 23 Report: “New vessels for the Clyde and Hebrides: Arrangements to deliver vessels 801 and 802”

Meeting date: 16 June 2022

Richard Leonard

You mentioned a parent company guarantee, which has also been the subject of some interest. Some people have said that they were under the impression that Clyde Blowers Capital would underwrite the work, but you said later that that was never the case.

In evidence that you gave to the Rural Economy and Connectivity Committee a bit later on, you said that you raised your concerns with the First Minister, the Cabinet Secretary for Finance, Economy and Fair Work, the Deputy First Minister, the Minister for Business, Fair Work and Skills, plus all three transport ministers. I think that you said that with an air of frustration, but you clearly had a very close relationship with a range of Government ministers.

I just wanted to follow up Sharon Dowey’s question, which, I think, Mo Rooney answered, on the changing role of CMAL and its having the role of overseeing the work in the yard. When the question was asked, legitimately, whether you thought that that represented a conflict of interest, you said that you had given consideration to the matter, presumably concluding that there was no such conflict. Can you provide us with any documentary evidence of those considerations?

When did you find the thing that Mr Brannen referred to as “the bit of paper”?

I think that that was the same day that the Conservative party called a debate on ferries in the Parliament. Is that correct?

And the minister was able to wave that bit of paper in Parliament in the afternoon of 11 May.
