Clyde Gateway Annual Report 2009-2010 03 SECTION 1 Chair’s Report and Review I made the observation in last year’s annual report that Clyde Gateway had made good progress since its inception in December 2007 in what have been challenging economic circumstances. Twelve months on, and it is very pleasing to be able to say that the level of progress has increased substantially and we are now working up a considerable head of steam in our efforts to deliver a physical, social and economic transformation across the Clyde Gateway area. The contents of this latest Annual Report will give a measure of our achievements over the 12 months up to the end of March 2010. All of our partners – the Scottish Government, Scottish Enterprise, Glasgow City Council and South Lanarkshire Council – have continued to give truly fantastic backing to our 20-year plan to create 21,000 new jobs, construct 10,000 new homes, increase the population by 20,000 and deliver £1.5 billion of private sector investment.
