- Submitted by: Mark Griffin, Central Scotland, Scottish Labour.
- Date lodged: Tuesday, 24 January 2023
- Motion reference: S6M-07613.1
- Current status: Taken in the Chamber on Wednesday, 25 January 2023
As an amendment to motion S6M-07613 in the name of Miles Briggs (Homeless Emergency), insert at end "; notes that the continued lack of sufficient funds for local authorities granted by the Scottish Government is having a direct effect on the ability of councils to meaningfully tackle the housing emergency in Scotland; urges the Scottish Government to designate a single housing minister with overall and direct responsibility for tackling Scotland’s housing emergency and addressing the housing needs of people in Scotland, and calls on the Scottish Government to use all the policy levers at its disposal to tackle this crisis, including reversing the delay to its proposed Housing Bill, urgently extending and revamping the Home Owners' Support Fund Mortgage to Shared Equity scheme, and making changes to its affordable housing supply programme grant rules to facilitate the purchases of properties with tenants in-situ to expand stock and prevent further homelessness."
