To ask the Scottish Executive, following the publication of Choosing our Future: Scotland’s Sustainable Development Strategy in December 2005, which states that complex funding streams caused problems for those seeking to promote local environmental regeneration projects, when it will bring forward proposals to simplify the range and scope of these streams and on what date any new funding will be available. We expect to bring forward proposalsto simplify the range and scope of funding streams for local environmental regenerationprojects by the end of this financial year and to implement new arrangements forfunding as soon as possible thereafter.
