Proceeding contribution from Martin Horwood (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 18 April 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Housing (Hertfordshire).
Housing (Hertfordshire)
I share the right hon. Gentleman’s analysis up to a point, and there is a significant out-migration issue from London, but is there any academic verification for his assertion that immigration is to blame? The only reference I can find is from the Joseph Rowntree Foundation, which said that out-migration was largely due to natural household growth, growth in the existing population, and older and more affluent households moving out to the urban fringe, and not due to immigration.
