At a time when the UK is in an economic hole the size of a Martian crater, all manner of research and figures are being conducted and collated to make sure we find a way out. Some of the surveys, like the one reported last week, are commissioned by Charites in an attempt to cast a spotlight on issues that are being over looked. Other research is backed by Governments as they either hope to learn from the mistakes or attempt to look like they’re doing something constructive.
A custodian that’s definately lacking in information when it comes to repossession order figures and statistics, is The Scottish Government. They’ve recently upped the pressure on finance chiefs to reveal what effect repossession is having on the people of Scotland. According to some research that has been done – about 48,000 homes are expected to be repossessed across the UK throughout 2010 but the extent of the problem in Scotland is unknown.
