Cabinet Secretary for Net Zero MĂ iri McAllan said:
“There is no doubt that people, businesses and communities in the worst affected areas are still suffering hugely.
“Many are worried about what the immediate future holds, and we acknowledge that for many the festive season is going to be challenging.
“This grants scheme recognises this.
“I want to re-assure those affected that the Scottish Government will play our part in helping people and businesses through this horrible experience which has destroyed property and belongings.
“We have made sure the scheme is as simple and fair as possible for people to apply to, and to give councils discretion so they can help as many people and businesses as possible.
“As people begin to rebuild their lives we continue to stand beside the communities and local authorities on the long road to recovery.”
