Humza Yousaf has been urged to offer compensation to island communities affected by ferry cancellations as Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar hit out at the First Minister’s “fresh start”.
Ferry services have been hit by widespread disruption in recent weeks, with crucial sailings between Lochboisdale on South Uist cancelled until 13 May.
During the cancellation of the Lochboisdale service, additional daily services are provided on the Sound of Barra route to help islanders in Uist access other ferries linking the Western Isles to the mainland.
