To ask the Scottish Government what action it takes to ensure that Transport Scotland and Caledonian MacBrayne have arrangements in place to ensure that petrol supplies can be conveyed by scheduled ferry to Lismore.
The transportation of petrol by CalMac on the Lismore ferry service is subject to the requirements of the Carriage of Dangerous Goods legislation. Roadtankers carrying up to 12000 litres of petrol are able to travel on the MV Loch Striven which operates the service.
