GRAMPIAN Holdings reports a "distinct drop in activity" in its transport group in the second half of last year.
• Chairman David Grieg said this disappointing performance in the tipper and plant hire business follows an improvement in the early part of the year, after the release of public-sector money.
The newly equipped storage plant of the business is "active". Investment in vehicles and contracting plant "a significant proportion" of the group's assets at £5.05m was slightly higher last year than in 1980.
