Published 1st Sep 2015

The First Minister has today announced that the Scottish Government's Oil and Gas Jobs Taskforce is to be extended by six months.

The announcement came during the SNP's Programme for Government, revealed at Holyrood today.

The taskforce was created at the beginning of the year, in an attempt to support the hundreds of North Sea workers that have been made redundant due to the ongoing oil crisis.
