Kevin Hollinrake

Conservative — Thirsk and Malton

Speaking in the House of Commons on 24 March 2025

Debate

Planning and Infrastructure Bill

Contribution

The hon. Gentleman fails to acknowledge that there were quite a few different housing Ministers during Labour’s previous tenure as well, but he makes an interesting and important point that I am happy to answer. Of course we want to build more houses to tackle affordability problems. I say that in relation to social housing, because during those 14 years, as well as delivering 2.5 million new homes, we delivered 750,000 affordable homes.
