The First Minister will be aware that the Spanish Government is going to great lengths, rather ironically, to prevent another Spanish energy company from falling into foreign ownership because it considers that that would be against Spain's national interest.Is the First Minister also aware that the Spanish Government gives substantial tax subsidies to Spanish companies that buy foreign firms? According to a report that has been obtained by my office, Iberdrola stands to land more than £1 billion in tax subsidy for the takeover of Scottish Power.
