– Scottish Parliament written question – answered at on 21 March 2011.
Question S3W-40590
To ask the Scottish Executive what consideration it gives to the needs of the Chinese community when developing housing policy and which representatives of that community it consults.
Homes Fit for the 21st Century is the Scottish Government’s strategy and action plan for housing for the decade to 2020. The strategy, launched in February, followed a national housing discussion, with a wide range of organisations and individuals taking part. All contributions to the discussion helped to shape the content of the strategy.
Further to the discussion responses, officials contacted key national representative equality organisations inviting comments on the potential implications for equalities in the proposed content of the strategy. Of these organisations, minority ethnic communities, including the Chinese community, are represented through Black and Ethnic Minority Infrastructure in Scotland (BEMIS) and the Council of Ethnic Minority Voluntary Organisations (Scotland) (CEMVO).
