Strong foundations for Scotland to keep building towards net zero
UKGBC responds to the resignation of Nicola Sturgeon as First Minister of Scotland.
The Scottish Government under Nicola Sturgeon’s leadership has enjoyed a strong and collaborative relationship with the built environment industry as we work towards a net zero future for Scotland. We hope that her successor builds on these strong foundations to sustain momentum and press onwards at speed and scale.
Whoever next leads the Government, our close partnership delivering a greener future for Scotland will continue. From working as part of a diverse Green Heat Finance Taskforce to delivering on the promises of the Heat in Buildings Strategy, our network of more than 100 Scottish organisations look forward to collaborating with the Scottish Government to tackle the cost of living and climate crises.”
Simon McWhirter, UKGBC’s Director of Communications, Policy and Places
