Fife communities 'crying out' for just transition - Green MSPpublished at 15:52 British Summer Time 29 May 2019
Green MSP Mark Ruskell says communities in Fife are "crying out" for a just transition.
The Greens back the Fife 'ready for renewal' campaign he says, insisting it would be a "scandal" if EDF did not support the community in the development just off the coast.
The role of Crown Estate Scotland as a landlord is critical going forward, he says.
We also need a state that can create new markets and the deployment of offshore wind must at least double the pipeline of work, the Green MSP insists.
Mr Ruskell says the level of investment required from Scottish Enterprise into the supply chain has not been there.
He calls for a Green New Deal for Scotland.
