Proceeding contribution from Andrew Mackinlay (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 17 July 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Service Personnel.


Service Personnel

Will the Secretary of State revisit the question of requiring local authorities by statute to allocate a small proportion of their housing stock for nomination to service leavers? It is unfair to some local authorities that have a disproportionate burden and meet it that others simply are not playing their patriotic part. It would be much better if each local authority had to make a small allocation of its housing stock available to service leavers. ...I have done so before in the House, and you said that you would look at it.
