Proceeding contribution from Karen Buck (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 13 June 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill (Programme) (No. 2).
Welfare Reform Bill (Programme) (No. 2)
There is the remotest chance of the property that such a person is leaving being occupied by someone who requires the same level of adaptation. It is like playing three-dimensional chess—it will be almost impossible to fit all the people into the properties that exist. At the moment there is supposed to be a flood of people who will leave under-occupied properties in the north-west of England and swap with people in London and the south-east. Then when all the individuals who need adapted properties are considered, it becomes a literal impossibility to ensure that properties match people's needs properly.
