The question
To ask the Presiding Officer who the receiver for Flour City Architectural Metals (UK) Ltd is and whether that receiver has also been appointed as receiver in respect of the parent company of Flour City Architectural Metals (UK) Ltd; what contact the Parliament or principal contractor for the Holyrood Project has had with the receiver for Flour City Architectural Metals (UK) Ltd; when any such contact was made, and whether copies of any correspondence relating to any such contact will be placed in the Scottish Parliament Information Centre.
The answer
The Parliament has received legal advice that the documents requested should not be placed in the Scottish Parliament Information Centre while the SPCB's rights and entitlements are still being evaluated, as they may form part of the productions in any litigation which may follow. The appointed receiver for Flour City Architectural Metals (UK) Ltd. is D. J. Manning. The appointment is only in respect of Flour City Architectural Metals (UK) Ltd and not the parent company, which was still trading as at 1 March 2002. The Convener of the Holyrood Progress Group has confirmed that the Holyrood Project Team and the Project Construction Managers, Bovis Lend Lease Scotland Ltd, were in contact with the appointed receiver to exchange relevant information, immediately following the demise of Flour City Architectural Metals (UK) Ltd.
