Strategic Housing Investment Plan (SHIP) guidance note MHDGN 2023/02

This guidance note contains revised procedures for preparing a Strategic Housing Investment Plan (SHIP) and supersedes MHDGN 2022/01.


Monitoring and publication

The Scottish Government expects local authorities to monitor delivery of affordable housing referenced in a SHIP against their LHS outcomes and Local Outcome Improvement Plans to identify how LHS policies are being translated into operational delivery. 

The SHIP should be published on the local authority’s web page and this should include the detailed SHIP tables. A web link to the published SHIP should be provided to the relevant Scottish Government More Homes Division local contact and confirmation provided when this has been done.
