Fix student housing

Every student deserves a safe, affordable, and secure home.

But across Scotland, student housing has reached crisis point - a shocking 12% of students have experienced homelessness, and rents remain unaffordable and rising.

The Scottish Government's upcoming Housing Bill is the crucial opportunity to fix this.


 

We need the Housing Bill to:

1) Ensure rent prices come down from existing levels

2) Introduce rent controls that fully include purpose-built student accommodation, with full parity with the private rented sector

3) Avoid the March 2024 cliff edge by extending the emergency legislation for a rent freeze and eviction ban
