Lib Dems bid for £150million for schools

March 24, 2003 12:00 AM

Jo Swinson at a primary schoolThe Lib Dem run Council has applied to the Scottish Executive for a multi-million pound refurbishment of schools in East Dunbartonshire. A bid for £150million to invest in our schools over the next few years has been sent to Holyrood.

Education Convenor Cllr Eric Gotts said:

"We urgently need to invest in our schools. We have to catch up on a backlog of repairs and bring our school buildings into the 21st century. That is why we have lodged our bid with the Scottish Executive. If our bid is successful, the Liberal Democrats will have delivered yet more improvements for our local school pupils."

The Scottish Executive is expected to announce the outcome of the bid later in the year.

    If you are a resident of the East Dunbartonshire constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
