This is the list of documents available for the submission By Councillor Kim Long:- "Glasgow City Council condemns the hostile environment policies of the UK Home Office which have given rise to the pernicious threat of lock changes and evictions by Serco Group. Council rejects the notion of a 'failed' asylum seeker and instead declares that all people seeking asylum are being failed by a system that makes it nearly impossible to win. Given the high rate of successful appeals, it is imperative that people have housing and subsistence support to provide basic dignity whilst pursuing their legal case. We urge the Scottish Government to enact the recommendations to the 2017 Equalities and Human Rights Commission report, including the creation of a Scottish anti-destitution strategy, a new Scottish Government advocacy service and the creation of a national practitioners' network. Council believes forced destitution is a shameful practice that causes physical and mental harm for individuals, and extra strain on public services. Glasgow will stand against forced evictions and lock changes, and will continue to work in partnership with third-sector organisations to strengthen homelessness provision for destitute people with No Recourse to Public Funds.".
