McMillan Highlights East Dunbartonshire in Tourism Debate

Stuart McMillan MSP, (SNP) and Convenor of the Cross Party Group on Marine Tourism and Recreational Boating has highlighted East Dunbartonshire tourism in a speech in the Scottish Parliament. During his speech Mr McMillan raised the benefits of the new Southbank Marina in Kirkintilloch

Mr McMillan said;

"It's important to highlight the many positive aspects the area of East Dunbartonshire has to offer and one of those is through tourism.

"With the creation of the new Southbank Marina in Kirkintilloch, which has more than 40 berths, there is an opportunity to showcase the area and at the same time bring much needed economic benefits.

"During the year of Homecoming we had the excellent Kirkintilloch Canal Festival which further demonstrated the area's positive outlook on tourism.

"Therefore, I hope we will be able to build upon these successes and bring more economic benefit to the area of East Dunbartonshire in the future."
