Regenerating the People’s Palace and Winter Gardens remains a key priority for Glasgow City Council despite a major funding blow from the UK Government.
A recent report on regeneration projects taking place in the city highlighted the “damaging Levelling Up funding decisions”, made by Westminster officials, despite the scheme being designed to improve everyday life across the UK. It also confirmed that none of Glasgow’s bids were accepted.
During the environment and liveable neighbourhoods committee, SNP councillor Alex Kerr for the Baillieston ward hit out at the UK Government's fund branding it the "levelling down fund" for failing to take "into consideration social and economic challenges".
