By: Shelter Scotland  Published: February 2010


Written evidence for stage 1 of the debate on the Housing (Scotland) Bill 2010.

Summary

Shelter supports the aims of the Bill: to improve the value of social housing and safeguard its supply. In this submission we have focused on how homeless households are housed and supported to maintain tenancies.  We have included a further set of proposals which we believe strengthen the Bill.  The text in this paper is a brief summary of our suggestions.  We have more detailed policy papers which amplify the arguments.
