To ask the Scottish Executive when the International Technology and Renewable Energy Zone will be fully operational; how much financial support it has given to establish the zone and how much it will provide in each of the next five years.
Answer
The Scottish Government does not provide any direct financial support to the International Technology and Renewable Energy Zone. The zone does however receive financial support from Scottish Enterprise.
The question of when the zone will be fully operational is an operational matter for Scottish Enterprise, which is leading the project.
I will ask Scottish Enterprise’s Chief Executive to write to you with that information.
