Lib Dems secure funding for affordable homes
7 Mar 2025
The Scottish Liberal Democrats have secured funding to build more affordable homes in communities across Scotland.
The SNP had shamefully cut the budget for affordable homes during a housing emergency, but thanks to tireless effort from the Scottish Liberal Democrats that budget will increase by 26%.
Scottish Liberal Democrat leader Alex Cole-Hamilton said, “It was wrong of the SNP to cut funding for affordable homes in the middle of a housing crisis.
“Everyone deserves a place to call home, and that is why the Scottish Liberal Democrats have made sure that funding for affordable homes has increased by a substantial amount.
“There is much more left to do to tackle the housing emergency, but this is a step in the right direction.”
