After the announcement was made, Housing Secretary Shona Robison thanked registered social landlords, local authorities, the construction sector and other partners who helped the country achieve this milestone.

Robison explained that the COVID-19 pandemic slowed the pace of construction in the country. She noted, “While this has affected our ability to meet our target of delivering 50,000 affordable homes over the last parliamentary period, we are continuing to work closely with partners across the housing sector to deliver the remaining homes as quickly as it is safe to do so.

“We will then deliver a further 100,000 homes by 2032, with at least 70% of these for social rent. This is just one of the actions set out in our Housing to 2040 strategy for building a fairer, more equal housing sector, alongside taking steps to tackle high rents in the private sector, setting a single set of standards for housing quality and accessibility, and continuing our work to end homelessness and rough sleeping once and for all.”
