South Lanarkshire Council’s Housing Plans
The motion
That the Parliament welcomes the proposed initiatives by South Lanarkshire Council to invest nearly £100 million into housing, and believes that council rents continue to be the lowest for social landlords in South Lanarkshire; agrees with the Council on the importance of continuing to build new homes, improving existing ones and being fully compliant with the new energy efficiency standards for social housing, and believes that the building of houses is an important element in tackling inequality and that the Council's plans support the Scottish Government’s major expansion of affordable housing across Scotland.
