Submission Documents: (a) Housing and Social Care Committee "Council notes with disappointment that since the media comment by the Convener of the Housing and Social Care Committee in the summer of 2007 that the Housing Department would extend into loft space to deal with overcrowding not one single property has been extended in such a manner. Council finds this unacceptable, particularly as a number of properties have been identified as suitable for such alterations but, to date, no action has been taken to alleviate these families' problems. Council therefore calls on the Director of Corporate and Neighbourhood Services to advise what action has been taken by the Council to extend houses into their loft spaces or to bring a report to the next meeting of the Housing and Social Care Committee outlining why these works cannot proceed".
