Recommendation
The Ministry of Defence should, in line with its commitments in the National Shipbuilding Strategy and the UK Government’s commitments in Maritime 2050, work specifically to develop shipbuilding clusters in Scotland. In responding to this report, the UK Government should update us on what it has already done to support the growth of the Scottish Maritime Cluster as was promised in the Maritime 2050 strategy in 2019. To support the growth of these clusters the MOD needs to address barriers to Scottish SMEs working with the Ministry.
