Call for gagging orders on tram staff to be lifted

DOZENS of former staff at Edinburgh's tram firm signed gagging clauses as part of their severance agreements.

It means former employees at Transport Initiatives Edinburgh (TIE) may be unable to speak about their time on the disastrous project.

SNP MSP Marco Biagi said it was “essential” for the silence orders to be lifted in time for a public inquiry into the fiasco.
