  • The Proposed Tendering of Clyde and Hebrides Ferry Services: Problems and an Alternative Proposal
    The Proposed Tendering of Clyde and Hebrides Ferry Services: Problems and an Alternative Proposal Final Submission to the Consultation Process Neil M. Kay Home 93 Shore Road Innellan Argyll Tel 01369-830429 Or 01369-830877 [email protected] This paper is submitted as part of the current consultation process organised by the Scottish Executive on Clyde and Hebrides Ferry Services, and which ends 16th March 2005. I am grateful for past advice from many colleagues and interested parties on the issues discussed here, in particular Sandy Ferguson, Paul Bennett, Tony Prosser, Mark Furse, Jeanette Findlay, Drew Scott, participants at a seminar hosted by the Europa Institute, Edinburgh University March 11th 2005 and senior European Commission officials, Brussels 14th March 2005. I alone am responsible for any errors of commission or omission in this paper. It must also be emphasised that the views expressed here do not necessarily represent the views of any other individual, group, or institution. The paper as presented to the Europa Institute, March 11th, will benefit from rewriting and further development in view of the valuable comments made there. However, given the imminent deadline for close of the above noted consultation, at this stage I am only changing the cover and contents pages; adding two Appendixes (4 and 5) on the Northern Isles and Gourock-Dunoon issues, and adding some final thoughts. This means that content and pagination of the original paper (pp. 3-44 inclusive ) remains otherwise unchanged at this stage. I have no objection to this submission being made public as part of this consultation process 1 The Proposed Tendering of Clyde and Hebrides Ferry Services: Problems and an Alternative Proposal Neil M.

It is a task that has taken just over a year and seen my colleagues and me travelling the length and breadth of Scotland. It has been very hard work – but also very rewarding. Many of the issues are complex, but at the heart of this is our desire to find ways to help improve the lives of the people of Scotland. The reward has been in meeting so many people and discussing the issues with them – at formal evidence sessions, at informal meetings, and at engagement events across the country.
