My thoughts exactly David, no changes should be implemented after passing CDR / Design Freeze.......unless there are additional funding/resources agreed. I think one of the issues here is that CALMAC is owned by the Scottish Government - who also provided huge bridging loans to Fergusons to stop them going bust, gives the supplier something of a weak hand when negotiating and was likely pressured into design changes.
