Show Notes

Scotlands social housing crisis deepens: completions and starts hit record lows, with just 3,611 social homes finished and 3,070 started in 2021. Private sector also struggles, completing 13,725 homes and starting 11,929, marking significant declines. Critics blame government for housing and homelessness disaster, warning of increased homelessness and service cuts without action. Experts call for 15,693 social homes per year to address the issue, but government falls short of its 110,000 affordable homes target by 2032. Pressure mounts for funding and bold solutions before the next election.
