More than 100 Ukrainian refugees are housed in two West Lothian hotels because of the shortage of suitable hosts or properties to let.
There are currently 73 refugees staying at the Mercure hotel in Livingston with a further 29 at the Houston House hotel at Uphall.
As the first six months of the hosting programmes comes to a close there is an uncertainty over the future as the war continues and local authorities across Scotland face similar pressures in providing housing for those displaced by the Russian invasion.
