Mothers and babies seeking asylum in Scotland are still being housed in cramped and unsafe conditions that pose a significant risk of violating their human rights, according to a new report.
The office of the Children and Young People’s Commissioner Scotland has found that despite assurances from provider the Mears Group in November 2021, many women and their children have not been moved to more suitable housing.
They are currently placed in bedsit accommodation in Glasgow’s south side, by the Mears Group with full approval of Glasgow City Council and the Glasgow Health and Social Care Partnership (HSPC).
