The Scottish Housing Regulator has set out its continued commitment to children’s rights and to people with care experience in two newly published documents.
The Children’s Rights Report sets out what the Regulator did during the past three years and what it will do during 2026-2029 to support Children’s Rights.
It also sets out information on the Regulator’s role in relation to monitoring the implementation of social landlords’ duties not to act incompatibly with the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) requirements.
The Corporate Parenting Plan sets out what the Regulator did over the past three years and what it will do during 2026-2029 in its role as a corporate parent, supporting people with care experience.
Helen Shaw, director of regulation, said: “We have a number of duties and obligations towards children and young people and those who are Care Experienced. The plans we have published today set out how we will meet our children’s rights and corporate parenting responsibilities, supporting improvements for children and young people and those with care experience.
“Our thanks go to the young people who took part in workshops to provide feedback on our Children’s Rights Report and Corporate Parenting Plan and to the organisation Who Cares? Scotland for facilitating the workshops and providing feedback.”
The Regulator has also produced summary versions of both reports to provide a shorter, more accessible overview.
