ASSC Director and Managing Director of Dickins Edinburgh has written to the Convener of the Local Government, Housing and Planning Committee outlining the impact of the Cost of Living Crisis on small accommodation providers, and how the Scottish Government could ameliorate the situation.

“It is not an exaggeration to say that self-caterers in every area of Scotland are on a cliff edge as the extreme rising energy costs will make their businesses untenable.

“Therefore, we ask that you act now, passing an SSI to delay the introduction of the short term let legislation until 1 October 2026 giving thousands of self-catering and B&B businesses the chance to survive, plus giving Scotland the best chance of continuing to have a tourism sector.”
