Question
To ask the Scottish Government when it last discussed the next contract for the Clyde and Hebrides Ferry Service with representatives of the UK Government.
Answer
As transport is a devolved matter there is no formal requirement for Scottish Government to discuss the next contract for the Clyde and Hebrides Ferry Service with representatives of the UK Government. Transport Scotland officials do, however, have regular discussions with UK Government Department for Transport officials regarding a number of maritime issues.
