Shadow Transport Minister, Graham Simpson said: "Yesterday we debated the SNP's handling of building ferries 801 and 802 - five years late and millions over budget. It's a scandal. The biggest scandal of the devolution age, and somebody has to take responsibility.
"The SNP’s failure to deliver a working ferry network is damaging businesses, costing jobs and driving islanders to despair.
"While the SNP prioritise another divisive independence referendum, Only the Scottish Conservatives can be trusted to focus on the people’s priorities such building a reliable ferry services and restoring the NHS".
