NOTICE OF MOTION 
12  Notice of Motion submitted by Councillor Beverige and
Councillor Watson
"Council recognises that existing Monklands hospital in Airdrie
is in a deteriorating condition and requires significant remedial
investment, and therefore supports the development of a new,
modern, fit for purpose replacement facility at the Western
Moffat site in Airdrie.  
However, it is alarming to read recent reports indicating that
the full business case for the replacement hospital has not yet
been approved by the Scottish Government and that funding
for the project remains unconfirmed.  
Accordingly, the Council requests that the Chief Executive
writes to the Scottish Government seeking urgent assurance
that the business case is approved and full funding made
available to enable the new hospital to be delivered and fully
operational by 2031 to provide the modern healthcare facility
required and deserved by residents of North Lanarkshire and
beyond."
