Sturgeon must share documents with MSPs investigating ferry scandal

Details of key meetings and cabinet briefings around the Ferguson ferry scandal must be published, a group of MSPs have told Nicola Sturgeon.

The public audit committee has written to the first minister urging her to publish new information to aid its inquiry into the saga.

Sturgeon was questioned at the committee last Friday as it investigates how the shipyard won a £97 million contract without standard financial guarantees and was then nationalised after collapsing into insolvency.

The committee want to see emails, briefings and official documents which were circulated at the highest levels of government. Sturgeon had promised to give the committee as much information as she was allowed to without breaching commercial confidentiality or legal privilege.
