Concerns raised about those facing homelessness during the cost-of-living crisis because landlords are deciding to sell up.
The "tension" among people losing their private rented accommodation has been described as "tangible" as homeless applications rise in Renfrewshire.
Councillor Iain McMillan, Labour group leader and representative for Johnstone South and Elderslie, said: "I've been speaking to Tom recently about a lot of people who are losing their homes because private landlords are deciding to sell up. I'm not going to get into the reasons why that's happening because they're quite complicated, those particular issues.
Mr Irvine responded: "It certainly feels as if it's ramping up, as it is across a lot of headings under homelessness. Sometimes it's hard to know what is the actual cause of someone's homelessness.

There is also a dedicated St Mirren section that will follow every kick of the ball with the Buddies."To answer your question, the numbers are not significant in among 900 homeless applications but it is increasing and it certainly feels worse. The tension and anxiety that's obvious within those that are losing their accommodation in the private rented sector is quite tangible."
