Proceeding contribution from Martin Horwood (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 21 July 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Housing and Regeneration Bill.


Housing and Regeneration Bill

I am grateful to the Under-Secretary for his comments. Let us take a hypothetical situation in which the Government take account of the housing downturn, and the fact that the original target of 3 million homes is now clearly inappropriate. If the HCA were to stick to that target, and the Minister for Housing implied that the Government might want it to, would local authorities have the right to challenge that number?
