In the report 'The Impact Of The Bedroom Tax In Scotland: Plan B - Charges, Arrears And Refunds; Incorporating The Government Response To The Committee's Fourth Report Of Session 2013-14 (HC 937)', the Scottish Affairs Committee concludes that the Scottish Government's plan to negate the future effects of the bedroom tax in Scotland is inadequate, and that the route they have identified using Discretionary Housing Payments is flawed.

The Committee has taken evidence in Scotland and Westminster on the impacts of the bedroom tax and the best and most effective ways of mitigating those effects. The report reiterates the call for the Scottish Government to meet all the bedroom tax charges for Scottish tenants, write off all the arrears, and refund all the payments that have been made, as the only fair and workable way forward.
