Anne Lear, Director of the Govanhill Housing Association has submitted a petition on behalf of the local community urging the Scottish Government to conduct an inquiry into the responsibilities of private landlords, below-standard social housing and the impact of slum living conditions on the health and well-being of residents. The petition was drafted with help from Govanhill Law Centre.
Committee Convener Frank McAveety MSP said: “Govanhill presents a particular housing challenge and this is a petition on behalf of local residents asking for help from national and local government. The hope is that they will be listened to by the key decision-makers who are gathered round the table.”
