SCOTTISH ministers must “sharpen our elbows” in the fight for green jobs, a union campaigning for the survival of renewable infrastructure firm Burntisland Fabrications (BiFab) said today.

The Scottish government announced that it would host an offshore wind power summit jointly with the British government in Edinburgh next month.

They will be joined by trade unions, offshore wind developers and supply chain companies.
