  • Motion type: Standard Motion
  • Motion reference: S7M-00963

That the Parliament notes concerns regarding the continued closure of Caird Park Golf Course in Dundee, formerly the city's last municipal golf facility and a community sporting asset with a history dating back almost a century; recognises the importance of affordable access to sport and recreation for people of all ages and backgrounds; acknowledges the efforts of local residents, golfers, community groups and other stakeholders seeking a sustainable future for the site; notes reports that proposals to restore sporting use at Caird Park have encountered significant challenges; believes that public assets should not be allowed to fall into dereliction where viable community-led alternatives exist, and calls on all relevant bodies to engage constructively with local stakeholders to help secure a future for the site that maximises opportunities for sport, recreation and community use.
