ECONOMIC BOOST FOR NORTH OF SCOTLAND ANNOUNCED
Posted on
Finance Secretary John Swinney recently announced a £105 million package of economic stimulus for the whole of Scotland, with key areas of investment bringing particular benefit to the north of Scotland.
Outlined proposals support new investment and accelerate projects from future years to boost the economy. The projects announced have been selected on the basis that they can be taken forward quickly and will therefore deliver the maximum economic impact from the funds available.
Included in the projects announced were:-
• £22 million of investment in renewable energy and low carbon initiatives;
• Investment in colleges at the Inverness Campus;
• Investment in additional regeneration and enterprise projects in identified areas, of which, Forres is one;
• Additional investment in visitor facilities within national parks and Forestry Commission land.
