Highlands and Islands Scottish Conservative MSP Donald Cameron has joined forces with Labour MSP, Rhoda Grant, to secure a meeting with Deloitte, the BiFab administrators, to discuss future options for the Arnish Fabrication Yard.
Ahead of the meeting, Mr Cameron said: “We simply cannot allow the jobs and livelihoods which depend on Arnish to be lost."
“The yard and its workforce are an immense local asset and should have a significant part to play in helping to rebuild the Western Isles economy after the ravages of the pandemic."
“Frankly, if the SNP Government can’t or won’t help then they should just get out of the way.”
