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


Housing

We are announcing today additional land agreed in partnership between the Ministry of Defence and English Partnerships, with 50 per cent. affordable housing on those sites. The local planning authority will decide the appropriate mix to ensure that there are sufficient family homes. He is right to raise the issue of family homes. There are many areas where we need more family homes to meet the needs of the local community. I am sure that the hon. Gentleman will make representations to his local planning authority.
