That the Parliament congratulates SWG3 on beginning work on a £7.1 million programme of works on the venue and the surrounding area; understands that £1.5 million of funding has been awarded by agencies, including Creative Scotland, Scottish Enterprise, and the Scottish Government; notes that these monies will allow for the creation of a purpose built studio to be called Yard Works that, it is understood, will become a home to artistic, youth and community organisations; further notes that a total of £3.75 million has been raised, to date, towards the project, and the initial phase will allow for infrastructure improvements that will also serve the wider Yorkhill community, and believes that the vision and scope of this project will continue the good work and positive contribution of SWG3 to those in Kelvin and across Glasgow, and will further the aim of developing SWG3 into a true world class cultural destination.
