Chris Gallacher, on behalf of the Save Meadowbank Campaign, calling on the Scottish Parliament to urge the Scottish Government to clarify how the commitment to ensure a local, regional and national lasting legacy from the 2014 Commonwealth Games and promote sport and healthy living can be delivered in light of recent decisions by particular local authorities to reduce the provision of local, regional, and national level sports facilities, and how it will engage with local authorities on this, including providing adequate funding, to ensure that the existing range and level of sports facilities is not diminished through, for example, their sale for private housing.
