Budget meeting held on Thursday last week, Cllr Danny Devlin who is the Housing convener was asked if Rent Harmonisation was ever going to be undertaken as it had been mentioned over many years.
(At present council house tenants who reside in the Eastwood side of the authority pay a much higher rent that those in equivalent houses in the Levern Valley side.)
Cllr Devlins response is incredible.
"Basically what re harmonisation means is that somebody that stays in the most deprived areas of Barrhead will be paying more than somebody that stays in say, the most affluent area of, say, Newton Mearns in a council property."
