Delay to MoD contract 'could sink Scottish shipbuilding'
The U.K. Defence Committee said that work on Royal Navy's new carriers must start soon or the ship building industry in Scotland will die off.
Their report will warn that: shipbuilders must not be kept waiting any longer than necessary for the real start of the lucrative carrier project; the work must be fairly shared around all UK yards; and the MoD must preserve the flow of work to keep the yards functioning in the meantime, in order to maintain a viable industry into the future.
