'There is a certain amount of concern.'

The reduction in trouble comes after government funding was spent on extra policing, a meeting has heard.

A business chief has also described it as a “constant battle” for the council to keep the centre clean despite the “scale of efforts” undertaken. “Partially the policing we paid for out of Scottish Government money made a difference to the management of antisocial behaviour. That money is now coming to an end so we have to watch what happens in the months ahead. But we made progress, however shops are still reporting shoplifting being a particular problem for them.”

He said: “There is a certain amount of concern. We hope the recovery is sufficiently advanced that it won’t begin to go back into some of the issues of decline that we have seen particularly with anti-social behaviour. But we have to be alert to that possibility. If that were to occur we would have to explore alternative options.”

He said: “It is repetitive particularly in terms of anti-social graffiti and littering. It is a constant battle.”A paper presented to the committee said usage of trains is only at about 68 per cent of the levels that existed before Covid while subway numbers are 91 per cent and bus passengers are at 76 per cent.

Mr Patrick said the percentage of people returning to the office is almost half the national average and they want to investigate the situation.
