Scotland’s Traditional Housing Stock

Lodged by Nigel Don Members' Business Motion 21 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament notes that Scotland’s traditional housing, including that in Angus North and Mearns, which was constructed prior to 1919, is the group of dwellings most likely to be in disrepair; recognises that Historic Scotland's strategy for sustaining and developing traditional building skills focuses on promoting a better understanding of the value of traditional building skills; welcomes what it sees as this emphasis on traditional building skills in Scotland; notes the Scottish Government’s traditional building health check pilot scheme, which aims to address the state of the country's housing stock, and considers that quality repairs will also tend to reduce fuel poverty.
