I thank Martin Whitfield for everything that he has done to get this issue dealt with as a matter of urgency. I share his concerns around the lack of information during the work that was undertaken by the Equalities, Human Rights and Civil Justice Committee. Many committee members asked for an update. We, and the Government in particular, can learn lessons from that.
I would just like to point out to the minister that co-operation works both ways.
Seventeen per cent of Scotland’s population is made up of people living in rural areas, yet, last week, the First Minister announced that he will be allocating just 10 per cent of new funding for building affordable homes to rural areas. Does the cabinet secretary accept that that is an outrageous disparity, and will she push back on his plan to underfund rural housing?
