Record View says it's a shocking dereliction of duty that nearly 250k people in Scotland are on waiting lists for a council house while on 26k were allocated one last year

Stark findings on Scotland’s mounting social housing crisis require the urgent attention of SNP ministers. The Solace report, by council chiefs, warns the country faces an “emergency” situation and a “critical lack of capacity”.

The study estimates at least 125,000 properties are needed to meet current levels of demand. However, since 2022 just 18,583 new affordable houses have been delivered, with supply falling by a fifth in the last three years.
