Tayside and Fife leaders have been challenged to create jobs “sooner rather than later” as the ink dried on the £700 million Tay Cities Region Deal.
Leaders from across the political spectrum signed the deal on Thursday, explaining how the landmark agreement will create 6,000 jobs and improve the region’s underperforming economy.
Dundee West MP Chris Law, SNP, said the deal – which comes two years after an initial agreement was reached – had been a “long time coming”.
