- Date lodged: Tuesday, 22 November 2022
- Motion reference: S6M-06898.2
- Current status: Taken in the Chamber on Wednesday, 23 November 2022
As an amendment to motion S6M-06898 in the name of Mark Griffin (Cost of Living: Mortgage Rescue Scheme), leave out from "Scottish Government's" to end and insert "Home Owners’ Support Fund is a demand-led mortgage rescue programme to support low-income homeowners facing difficulty meeting payments to stay in their property through moving to either a rent or shared-equity scheme; notes that the Scottish Government is already reviewing the eligibility criteria of the Fund in light of the cost of living crisis; acknowledges the actions taken by the Scottish Government to also support people in the rented sector during the current cost crisis through the actions in the Cost of Living (Tenant Protection) (Scotland) Act 2022 and through up to £86.6 million in Discretionary Housing Support; calls on the UK Government to ensure that there is an adequate social security net to support people in time of hardship, including homeowners with mortgages; believes that the current nine-month wait for loan-only support with mortgages within Universal Credit is too long, and agrees that this is one of the many areas where Universal Credit is not fit for purpose."
