Clarification Regarding False Social Media Reports on the Hanover Scotland website
Members will be aware that the Council would not normally comment on ongoing commercial matters. However, given the misinformation publicised on social media and subsequent statement by Hanover Housing, Officers are of the view that it is important to update Members at this time
Hanover Housing has assured HSCP officers that it will “be working with residents and their families in the coming months to address the current financial deficit in relation to the service with an aim that we have this concluded by June. In the meantime the services continue as is”
Any direct enquires by members of the public or which have been received via Members have been responded to
