Recommendation 10

Scrutiny of the Housing (Scotland) Bill was split between this Committee and the Local Government, Housing and Planning (LGHP) Committee, and most of our work focused on Part 5 on homelessness prevention. Members felt this split worked really well and recommend that it is separated in this way in the next Session. The Committee scrutinised this part of the Bill at both Stages 1 and 2, and reported to the LGHP Committee, copying in the Scottish Government.
