21 a. Emphasises that housing must be also addressed as a key feminist issue; strongly regrets that women and gender non-conforming people tend to be more disadvantaged in access to adequate housing as a result of persisting gender related inequalities and discriminations, including gender pay, pension gaps and unpaid care, thus on overage having lower incomes, less capital and fewer opportunities to access mortgages; deeply regrets that all these factors result in a higher proportion of their available income being spent on housing costs; condemns that lone women and women lone-parent households as well as and those experiencing intersectional forms of discrimination such as migrants, women with disabilities, women with racial or ethnic background or LGTBIQ+ have much higher risks to live in insecure, undignified and unsafe conditions and at increased threat of becoming homeless and suffering violence;

25a. Is deeply concerned by the phenomenon whereby large business and investment entities carry out mass purchases, demolition or extensive reconstruction of old dwellings with a view to their transformation into tourist accommodation or luxury homes; considers that these practices lead to the displacement of permanent residents, soaring prices and the alteration of the historical and social character of European cities; calls on the Commission and the Member States to establish investment-screening mechanisms by setting a limit on the purchase of property by those not resident in the EU for investment purposes and to strengthen regulatory tools that prevent cities from turning into tourist enclaves devoid of social life; stresses that the right of residents to live in their own area and to take part in shaping the urban environment must take precedence over speculative market pressures;

Paragraph 26 a (new)

Motion for a resolutionAmendment
26 a. Calls on the Member States to ensure the provision of comprehensive, accessible and systemic community-based services for persons with disabilities. Stresses that individualised support services provided at the place of residence are essential to enable independent living, social inclusion, and to prevent persons with disabilities from being forced to seek assistance through institutionalisation. Underlines that the right to supported living should be recognised as a subjective right, guaranteed to every person with a disability who requires such assistance, regardless of their housing situation or level of functioning. Emphasises that standardised and quality-assured support services are necessary to ensure a decent quality of life and the freedom to choose where, how and with whom to live; without such services, the mere creation of physical housing infrastructure will not guarantee real accessibility or effective use of dwellings by persons with disabilities. Further calls for support services provided in the community to be flexible and adaptable over time, responding to changing individual needs and including transitional or “training housing” solutions that facilitate adaptation to independent living;
