Glasgow Council to sell City Chambers and Kelvingrove Art Gallery to meet equal pay claims
Glasgow council is proposing to sell off Kelvingrove Art Gallery and the City Chambers to meet outstanding equal pay claims.
An equal pay deal worth around £500m was agreed by Glasgow council in 2019 for thousands of predominantly female workers. However, the scheme only covered part of the equal pay liabilities and council chiefs have been discussing how to resolve these outstanding claims. The lost of assets listed include Kelvingrove, which is a haven for tourists, Kelvin Hall, the Gallery of Modern Art, Sighthill School Campus and Gowanbank School Campus.The paper stated: “The sale and leaseback capital receipts will significantly contribute to the overall funding available for the settlement of the remaining equal pay liability."
