Letters / No local benefit

Contributed

There is another multi million pound contract being awarded to a company out with Shetland with no prospect of any local companies benefiting from it (Sumburgh lighthouse contract awarded; SN 11/5.12).

When are local businesses in our islands going to start being supported by our own local authorities?
