Question
To ask the Scottish Government what recent discussions it has had with CalMac regarding reported staffing pressures on the Arran ferry routes.
Answer
Transport Scotland officials engage regularly with CalMac and cover a range of operational topics including staff and crew not only for the Arran Ferry services but the whole of the Clyde & Hebrides Ferry Services network. I recently met with representatives of CalMac’s senior management team and discussed a range of issues including the Arran service.
