Proceeding contribution from Neil Gray (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 5 March 2019. It occurred during Emergency debate on EU Exit Preparations: Ferry Contracts.


EU Exit Preparations: Ferry Contracts

I understand that the hon. Gentleman is about to turn to some of the questions he would like the Secretary of State to answer, but does he agree that one of them should be about the due diligence process that was carried out? The company that carried out that due diligence says that it could not ask the normal questions of Seaborne Freight because it was such a new entity. So how could the Government be in any way confident in their risk aversion in awarding that contract to Seaborne in the first place?
