Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee

Meeting date: Tuesday, September 6, 2022


Contents


Instrument subject to Approval

Under agenda item 6, we are considering one instrument subject to approval, on which no points have been raised.


Scottish Social Housing Charter: November 2022 (SG/2022/146)

Is the committee content with the instrument?

Members indicated agreement.

The Convener

The charter was previously laid in February 2022 and was subsequently withdrawn following questions being asked on behalf of the committee about whether the statutory consultation requirements had been met. That was still not clear in the revised charter that is before the committee today.

In correspondence with the Scottish Government on the revised charter, the committee asked whether there had been direct communication with all eight statutory consultees listed in section 33(2) of the Housing (Scotland) Act 2010 and whether any changes were made to the revised charter in light of direct communication from the statutory consultees.

The Scottish Government’s response, which can be found in the published papers for the meeting, lists the statutory consultees that responded to the consultation and the changes made to the charter in light of the consultation responses received. Given that the lead committee, which is the Local Government, Housing and Planning Committee, is likely to have an interest in that work, are members content for that correspondence to be drawn to the attention of the lead committee?

Members indicated agreement.
