HC Deb 06 December 1999 vol 340 c365W
Mr. David Stewart

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland what plans he has to meet the management and unions at the Barmac oil fabrication yards. [101438]

Mr. Wilson

I will be meeting representatives of the management and work force of Barmac later this week. The Government and the Scottish Executive will continue to work together closely to tackle the problems resulting from the lack of new construction orders for oil fabrication yards.
