Book Description
The Committee calls once more for a clear commitment from the Scottish Government that it will use its chosen method of mitigating the effects of the bedroom tax - Discretionary Housing Payments or DHPs -- to mitigate all the financial impact of the bedroom tax, both past and present, on tenants in Scotland. The Government confirmed in a letter to the Committee, from David Mundell MP, that Scottish Ministers will be allowed to set the statutory cap on DHPs in Scotland, allowing them to increase the amount paid through DHPs to cover all of the loss caused by the bedroom tax if they choose to. The Committee welcomes this, and the Scottish Government's commitment to make additional funding available for mitigation. The Committee says both Governments should expedite the necessary procedures which will enable the Scottish Government to lift the cap on DHPs in Scotland as quickly as possible.
