The question
To ask the Scottish Parliamentary Corporate Body on what date it obtained legal advice in respect of its legal remedies in relation to Flour City Architectural Metals (UK) Ltd; whether that advice contained recommendations that further inquiries be made and, if so, and whether those inquiries have been made and whether they have been completed, and whether that advice recommended, in particular, that any documents be obtained from the construction managers and, if so, whether those documents have been obtained.
The answer
A report containing legal advice on the Flour City issues was received on 4 December 2002, and was first considered at a meeting of the corporate body on 17 December 2002. The advice contained a number of recommendations, and the corporate body has been and continues to be guided by that advice. The advice received includes the recommendation that its contents should be kept confidential and not publicly discussed, so as not to prejudice the SPCB’sposition. Accordingly, and for this reason, I am not prepared at this time toprovide further details as to what steps have been taken or are planned.
