£86m investment brings new homes

An investment of £83m will create about 1,500 new homes in Glasgow over the coming year, it has been announced.

A further £3m will go to the Clyde Gateway regeneration project under the funding package announced by Communities Minister Rhona Brankin.

Mrs Brankin said the investment would create "mixed, vibrant communities with a range of homes for rent and for low cost ownership".

The investment is a 14% increase on last year's allocation of £70.7m.
