Immediate response received as follows from Argyll’s MSP who is on political duty in Mull on his summer tour:

‘I am somewhat pressed today covering many locations on Mull. But as far as this matter is concerned, we have already made representation to Clydeport and would advise a community get together with Council, Clydeport and others to see how all interests can be met’.

We have let Mr Mather know that we will pubish this advice and more when he gets a moment.
