Scottish Ferries Review

The Scottish Ferries Review aims to analyse the current lifeline ferry services and network, and inform the Scottish Government's long term strategy for lifeline ferry services in Scotland.

Following the publication of the Ferries Review Consultation Document by the Scottish Government on 10 June 2010, Caledonian Maritime Assets Limited (CMAL) is looking forward to working with the Government and all stakeholder groups to provide the very best ferry service to communities throughout Scotland.

The consultation is now running and is due for completion in September 2010. During the consultation period, CMAL is urging all interested parties to take part and contribute to the debate on the future of Scotland’s ferry service.

Full details of the review and consultation can be found on the Scottish Government website: http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Topics/Transport/ferries-ports-canals/14342/Review
