Proceeding contribution from Nick Raynsford (Labour) 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 welcome the further amendments that we are considering, but I must correct the impression given by the hon. Member for Welwyn Hatfield (Grant Shapps) that these are the sum total of the amendments to the Bill in respect of the status of housing associations and the risk to their classification as non-public sector bodies. In practice, the main amendments that safeguarded the position of housing associations were carried on Report in this House before the Bill went to the other place, following a detailed debate on these issues in Committee.
