Ferry report goes to Ministers
Published:  03 October, 2008

THE REPORT on the future of the Campbeltown to Ballycastle ferry is now to go before the government ministers on both sides of the North Channel.

No details have been forthcoming from last week’s briefing for councillors from Argyll and Bute in Edinburgh about the Scottish Transport Appraisal Guidance, or ‘STAG’ findings on the best way to run the service.

Councillor Donald Kelly, South Kintyre, said: ‘I feel very disappointed that there’s still no decision been taken but I am hopeful of the positive outcome given that there was a ferry and an operator available at the beginning of 2008 willing to operate the run for the original £1M subsidy.’
