Calls have been made for a public inquiry into the deaths
released information on three of the hotels late last year, Chief Inspector Natalie Carr said: “We know that members of the homeless community often have complex and multiple needs and that these may have been exacerbated by the public health crisis and accompanying restrictions.
Sean Clerkin, of the Scottish Tenants Association, said:"Thirty-six homeless people have died sudden deaths in six hotels in Glasgow between March 2020 and present. He added: “All of these deaths were unnecessary and reflect on the failure of Glasgow City Council failing to protect these vulnerable homeless people, who were dumped into this often squalid and unsuitable accommodation, left on their own to fend for themselves.
A council spokesperson said: “It is regrettable that people who experience homelessness and have complex health care needs die while residing in temporary accommodation, however accommodation is not the cause of death.
