A really excellent and thoughtful contribution Alex. I have forwarded it to the committee of the Scottish Tenants Organisation, and in advance of the AGM it's something as outgoing national secretary I'd like to see discussed, as we have been pushing for the restoration of the housing budget. It was highlighted to me through Alba's housing policy committee by Uisdean, for which I'm grateful, and we are discussing it now (having previously adopted the ALACHO target of 125k public homes). Will follow up with an email but it would be good to give this call the platform (and in particular the innovative points 3 & 4, 'where does the money come from?' And 'whose army are going to do it?' Which are always the snarls to doing anything different) it deserves and understand the pension financing in greater detail.
I read a story recently about a Scottish Eco Timber built housing company based in Inverness, Makar Ltd. which would generate a re-Forestation programme throughout Rural Scotland.
This would be the best option for a quick build solution to our housing shortages!?
