The Caledonian Inquirer publication will be distributed in west coast towns and island communities.

By Calum WatsonBusinessman Jim McColl has helped to fund a new publication aimed at exposing "the truth" about Scotland's ferry scandal.Described as a polemical "broadsheet" it includes interviews with ferry experts, politicians and islanders.

Both CMAL and Mr McColl have blamed each other for the problems that have beset the construction of two CalMac ferries, Glen Sannox and hull 802, which are five years late and at least £240m overbudget. He told the BBC: "It's a polemic - a modern day broadsheet to highlight a serious issue. I've been following this story for a long time."There is a real need to find the truth behind this whole debacle."
