A summary of the expected community benefits has been provided as follows:

Clyde Gateway Developments Ltd (the Employer) has introduced measures into the procurement of its contracts to ensure that it secures the maximum economic and social benefit for residents and businesses within the Clyde Gateway area from specific investment and the more general capital investments being made by the Employer.

The Procurement Reform Act (Scotland) 2014 is a significant element of the continuing public procurement reform programme. Scottish Government has described the aim of the Act as follows:

“to establish a national legislative framework for sustainable public procurement that supports Scotland’s economic growth by delivering social and environmental benefits, supporting innovation and promoting public procurement processes.”

The Act introduced a Sustainable Procurement Duty which is placed on procuring authorities. This duty requires procuring authorities to consider how they deliver enhanced social, economic and environmental benefits from their procurement. The obligations of this duty are set out within the Procurement Reform Act 2014.

A sustainable procurement duty will apply to all regulated projects as defined within the Procurement Reform Act. Community benefits are a key component for a procuring authority to meet their sustainable procurement duty.

The Employer recognises the potential of community benefits agreements within procurement processes and what it can bring in terms of employment and training and business development throughout the full period of the proposed development and beyond.
