Proceeding contribution from Greg Hands (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 25 April 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Housing Corporation (Delegation) etc. Bill.


Housing Corporation (Delegation) etc. Bill

My hon. Friend may be right. There are some precedents on retrospective legislation—for example, the War Crimes Act 1991 was essentially retrospective—but the Bill may open a can of worms. As I have said, legal action is being taken against housing associations, some of which relates to funding by the Housing Corporation.
