Mr. Wayne Stanley:

A number of us are members of a European organisation called FEANTSA; those working in housing and homelessness in the French context said one of the things that happened when the French took on the right to housing said it immediately changed the conversation they had with their local authorities, and their capacity and willingness to engage with those issues. I will defer to Professor Whyte or Ms Keatinge on the legal impact of those kind of changes in terms of the long-term viability of different housing options and how we might look at it. I would imagine that certainly constitutional change would increase the capacity for the necessary conversations. I will hand over to Professor Whyte on the legal force and effect of such change.
