The question

To ask the Scottish Executive whether it has received a request from Dundee City Council to meet a deputation to discuss recent job losses at Agritay in Dundee and, if so, when it intends to meet the deputation.

The answer

Answered by Henry McLeish on 8 Dec 1999 · 14 days after it was lodged, on time

I have not received a request to meet a deputation to discuss. I have however been advised that the Council, Scottish Enterprise Tayside and the Employment Service are already involved with the workforce, providing the necessary help in finding alternative employment and offering appropriate advice on other options.
