Submission History: Motion by Councillor Rashid Hussain:- "Council notes the UK Labour Government's launch of the Pride in Place programme; a £5 billion regeneration initiative designed to empower communities and revitalise neighbourhoods across the United Kingdom. This programme represents a significant shift in approach to local development, placing decision-making power directly in the hands of communities through the establishment of Neighbourhood Boards. Council welcomes the allocation of £292 million to Scotland, including £280 million in long-term investment for 14 neighbourhoods, with Glasgow set to receive up to £40 million over the next decade. In addition, Glasgow has been awarded £1.5 million from the Pride in Place Impact Fund to support immediate, community-led improvements to public spaces, play areas, and local infrastructure. Council notes that this transformative investment is being delivered by a UK Labour Government, at a time when Scottish local authorities have faced sustained financial pressures. Council believes that this funding presents a valuable opportunity to support inclusive economic growth and strengthen community resilience. It also provides a platform to demonstrate how Labour in government is delivering for Scotland, investing in its future, and putting power back in the hands of local people. Council therefore resolves to: 1. Welcome the UK Government's investment in Glasgow and Scotland and acknowledge the role of the Labour Government in delivering this funding. 2. Establish a cross-party working group to oversee Glasgow's participation in the Pride in Place programme and ensure alignment with city-wide regeneration strategies. 3. Call on the Scottish Government to work constructively with Glasgow City Council and other local authorities to match the ambition shown by the UK Labour Government, reverse damaging cuts to local services, and support councils to deliver for their communities. Council further resolves to receive annual updates on the progress of the Pride in Place programme through the Operational Performance and Scrutiny Committee." Help Icon
