'I live in fear and worry over possible eviction'

A mother and son facing eviction from their homeless flat will be allowed to stay there over Christmas.

Stacey Grieve was handed a court summons in the middle of a BBC interview about housing last month.

Her court case has now been postponed until the spring and the City of Edinburgh Council said it is supporting her in finding a suitable home.

It comes as the Scottish government slashed funding for affordable housing in its budget by £196m.

Meanwhile, BBC Scotland News understands a planned review of its target of building 110,000 affordable homes has been moved forward by two years.
