Question
To ask the Scottish Government how the £275 million regeneration fund announced in the Programme for Government will be allocated; when this funding will become available, and over how many years it will be spent.
Answer
We have committed to establishing a Place Based Investment Programme which will be backed by £275m for community led regeneration and town centre revitalization. We are yet to announce specific details of how the £275m will be invested over the next five years, but will work with partners including local authorities on how it will be best deployed to have greatest impacts locally.
