What do we do to tackle Scotland’s homelessness problem?

The number of people classed as homeless in Scotland hit an all-time high last year, according to the latest figures.
There were 28,944 open homelessness cases in September 2022 - the highest since Scottish government records began in 2002. The figures were up 11% on the previous year. Housing Secretary Shona Robison said the statistics were unacceptable and concerning. She said the Scottish government had commissioned an action plan to tackle the problem.
The Scottish Conservatives called the statistics "utterly disgraceful" and Labour said they were shameful. 
What do we really mean by homelessness?  Have you or someone you know been affected and what action is needed?
