Late summer launch for new HARP system
Reading time: 1 minute
The Scottish Government has delayed the launch of a replacement system to manage its Housing And Regeneration Programmes (HARP) funding tool.
The new system, which will directly handle funding applications and claims by registered social landlords, local authorities and developers, will now become operational in late summer 2016.
An earlier launch has been avoided due to “financial year end pressures”.
Applications and claims will continue to follow existing business and payment schedules until further notice.
In the meantime, managers will continue to discuss the HARP Project with stakeholders at their regular programme and liaison meetings, and the Scottish Government has undertaken that suitable training material will be provided to assist users of the system and will provide further details of this as the project progresses.
Queries about HARP should be directed to: Kirsty Henderson, project manager, email: kirsty.henderson@gov.scot direct dial: 0141 242 5495 or Sharon McGuire, project team member and communication officer, email: sharon.mcguire@gov.scot direct dial: 0141 242 5493.
