Following consultation with their investors, Standard Life have decided to exclude airlines from their list of eligible investments for the Standard Life ethically screened investment funds.

Attached is a copy of an article about this decision which appeared in the Scotsman on 6th February 2008. Comment from ethicafutures is included in the article.
