S4M-04470 # John Mason (Glasgow Shettleston) (Scottish National Party): That the Parliament notes the third and most recent visit to Glasgow of the Co-ordination Commission of the Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF) to receive a progress report on preparations for Glasgow 2014; welcomes the comments of CGF Vice President, Bruce Robertson, who said “the fact that a number of venues are either completed or are nearing completion, provides the CGF with significant confidence in the ability of Glasgow to deliver a successful Games”; considers that Glasgow 2014 is significantly regenerating Glasgow’s east end, as well as the city itself, and that it will provide tangible economic, social and cultural benefits for Scotland, which it considers will be ready to host this great event.
