UN sends in human rights team to investigate "bedroom tax" Ms Rolnik, who will reveal the initial findings of the unprecedented inspection next week, said the UK faced a "unique moment" when the challenge of providing adequate housing was "on the agenda." Article 25 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights includes housing as part of the "right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family." "The UK has voiced its commitment to human rights on repeated occasions, and this mission will give me an opportunity to assess in-depth to what extent adequate housing, as one central aspect of the right to an adequate standard of living, is at the core of this commitment," she said. The UK faces a unique moment, when the challenge to promote and protect the right to adequate housing for all is on the agenda. In doing so, special attention would need to be given to responding to the specific situations of various population groups, in particular low-income households and other marginalised individuals and groups. The visit - at the invitation of the Government - takes in London, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Belfast and Manchester and will include sessions in local communities. A UN spokesman pointed out that the UK was signed up to a number of international treaties which protect the right to adequate housing and non-discrimination. The final report will be presented in Geneva by the Special Rapporteur to the UN Human Rights Council in March 2014.
