Contribution

This Labour Government are changing the planning regulations so that we can get on and build the homes we need across our country. The Conservatives’ failure was the failure to do so. But I must applaud the hon. Gentleman, because at least he has had the decency to accept some of the failures of the last Government. On special educational needs and disabilities, he said: “my Government didn’t do enough on this.” and, “it’s awful.” He said his party “should hang our heads in shame”. He is absolutely right about that.
