“The decision to host the Games has been sitting with the Scottish government since May,” said Ian Reid, the chair of CGS.

“And we have worked tirelessly to address all questions and concerns raised across the past few months. However, the window of opportunity is fast closing.

“It would be a travesty if instead of grabbing the opportunity of over £100m investment, we chose to let it go and instead be left needing to find millions elsewhere to upgrade public facilities.

“A decision over the coming weeks is critical. We believe the concept is a no brainer and we are calling on the government to not waste the unique opportunity which is in front of us.”

In response, the Scottish government said they “continue to take forward discussions” on the Glasgow 2026 plan.

In a statement, they added: “Scottish Ministers have continued to be clear about the current financial pressures facing the public purse.

“They have a duty to balance potential benefits with the associated risks and ensure that staging the 2026 Games would be the right thing for Scotland at this time.”
