The City of Edinburgh Council has recently completed a procurement process for the "Category 1 C Shared House," aimed at providing accommodation for individuals and couples, with a capacity of up to 45 bedrooms.

Priority will be given to accommodation that does not breach the Unsuitable Accommodation Order by providing either self-contained properties within a block with staff on site 24 hours a day or a shared property which provides each household with exclusive use of toilet and personal washing facilities and access to a living room and kitchen which may be shared with other households.
