Govan Law Centre's bedroom tax petition has been remitted to Welfare Reform Committee for full consideration
Yesterday the Scottish Parliament's Petition Committee agreed to remit Govan Law Centre's (GLC) bedroom tax petition to the Welfare Reform Committee for full consideration and discussion.
“GLC believes that this is a positive step forward in the 'No evictions for bedroom tax' campaign in Scotland. Today's development will enable the case for progressive law reform to avoid evictions for bedroom tax arrears to be made with reference to Scottish empirical evidence and compelling real life case studies.”
