That the Parliament welcomes the completion of a £1.25 million investment by Fife Council in a new state-of-the-art golf course maintenance depot for Fife Golf Trust at Glenrothes Golf Course; understands that the purpose-built facility will support maintenance operations across the Trust's seven courses, providing modern workshop facilities, equipment storage and improved operational efficiency; recognises that the development incorporates solar panels, charging infrastructure and facilities for a new fleet of electric and hybrid maintenance machinery, with the investment expected to reduce fuel consumption and associated carbon emissions by 60% to 70%; acknowledges the important role that, it believes, public golf courses play in providing affordable and accessible sporting opportunities for people of all ages and abilities across Fife; commends Fife Council and Fife Golf Trust for demonstrating commitment to improving sporting infrastructure while supporting environmental sustainability, and wishes the Trust continued success in maintaining and developing its facilities for the benefit of residents and visitors.
