Proceeding contribution from Ed Davey (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 July 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Draft Legislative Programme.
Draft Legislative Programme
If the Prime Minister is to introduce new housing legislation, will he reform the housing revenue accounts subsidy scheme, through which Whitehall takes 29p in every pound paid in rent by Kingston council tenants to spend elsewhere in the country, preventing essential and basic repairs from being made to council homes in my constituency? How can it be fair for his Government to force council tenants on estates in places such as Kingston to pay for council house repairs elsewhere in the country?
