Proceeding contribution from Phyllis Starkey (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 23 July 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Housing.

Housing

I am pleased that the Minister has taken up the recommendation that was made by Shelter and endorsed by the Communities and Local Government Committee to increase social rented housing, but I am still not clear about how the Government’s proposals will ensure that social rented housing is provided in response to local needs, particularly in areas where councils are rated relatively poorly and have therefore not been allowed the rights of more highly rated councils.
