When the first tranche of funding from the Local Growth Fund will be released to delivery partners.
To secure the release of their Local Growth Fund allocation for financial year 2026-27, Regional Partnerships in Scotland are required to submit a 3-year Investment Plan by 29 May 2026. The Scotland Office and Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government will review and sign-off these plans before the release of year 1 funds - anticipated in Summer 2026.
