New rights for the homeless come into force

Legislation which aims to effectively end homelessness in Scotland has come into force.

The change entitles anyone finding themselves homeless through no fault of their own to settled accommodation.

Previously, only those classed as being in priority need - often families with children - had that right.

It meets Scotland's historic 2012 homelessness commitment, first set 10 years ago by the Labour/Lib Dem government.

should be implemented all over, if it is not through their own fault

I agree wiseguy.

You're not far off the mark there Johno and it isn't just over there.

Finally someone in the Government finally turned on a Big light Bulb
