Highland firms to quiz Fergus Ewing MSP

Highland businesses are invited to take part in an hour-long online FSB Q&A with tourism secretary Fergus Ewing on Monday.

The FSB believes it is the perfect time for smaller businesses to quiz the Inverness and Nairn MSP on what the Scottish Government is doing to support firms as they contend with the impact of the coronavirus pandemic.

Tanja Lister, the FSB’s area leader and director of the Kylesku Hotel, said: “We know how anxious businesses are becoming about their abilities to survive in this new world and, given that the virus is unpredictable, they clearly want as much clarity as possible so that they can plan their survival strategies once unlocking takes place.”

Questions for the 12.50pm meeting must be submitted in advance and participants should register via the FSB Highlands and Islands Facebook page.
