Scotland’s City Region and Regional Growth Deals – your experience of the deals and views on their impact

City Region Deals and Regional Growth Deals are funding deals agreed between the Scottish Government, the UK Government and local partners. They are designed to bring about long-term improvements to regional economies, attract investment, create new jobs and accelerate inclusive economic growth. There are currently 12 deals in Scotland at different stages of their lifecycles. Two deals are still to conclude their final agreement.

The Economy and Fair Work Committee will undertake an inquiry to look at the implementation and effectiveness of deals. They will consider how deals have contributed to addressing local issues, and supporting development and inclusive growth. As part of this work, the Committee will consider submissions made earlier this year to the Scottish Affairs Committee

They are keen to hear a wide range of views, particularly from: community groups, Scottish businesses and local authorities.
