To ask the Scottish Executive, further to the announcement in a press release of 16 April 2008 that Aye Can would reopen on 1 August 2008, when it expects Aye Can to reopen and whether it proposes to make a statement to the Parliament on the matter.
Answer
In June 2008, Aberdeen City Council agreed to the transfer of Aye Can to Inspire, a third sector organisation based in Aberdeen. Inspire expects to open the new Aye Can in April 2009. As with most new ventures there have been some unexpected delays, however the majority of these have now been overcome. It would not be appropriate to make a statement to Parliament on the matter as this is a commercial arrangement between Aberdeen City Council and Inspire.
