Arrivals of young refugees in Kent has put 'continued pressure on the system'

Glasgow’s social work service will pay “above market value” to continue renting flats for young asylum seekers in Springburn as “pressure” from new arrivals in Kent affects the city.

An official from the city’s health and social care partnership added: “A factor in our current pressures and current difficulties has been the continued pressure in Kent in terms of unaccompanied young people and wider asylum seeking populations. The council official said the private residential letting sector and the energy market have been “volatile”. “The shortage of supply relative to demand has led to a sharp increase in prices,” he added.

“Consequently, officers are of the view that agreeing the terms offered are the best option for the council both financially and in terms of continuity of service provision.” Cllr Ken Andrew said: “It certainly looks expensive for the area, as suggested it looks like maybe 10 to 15% above market rates. Although having looked at it, it clearly looks like a tidy building. It looks well managed and clean.”
