Secretary of State visits Cockenzie

We were pleased to welcome Scottish Secretary, Ian Murray, to the former Cockenzie Power Station site recently.

It was an excellent opportunity to highlight progress on the site, including work to create significant inward investment with the aim of boosting the local economy.

The visit coincided with the launch of the UK Government's modern Industrial Strategy.

Mr Murray met Chief Executive Laurence Rockey, Council Leader Norman Hampshire, Head of Development Keith Dingwall and Project Manager Ray Montgomery and was given a tour of the site, before undertaking media interviews.
