Lord Khan of Burnley (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 16 December 2024

Debate

Older People’s Housing Taskforce

Contribution

The noble Baroness makes a very important point. I understand that accessibility in new homes—and accessibility standards for buildings in general—is an important concern. Housing is one of this Government’s top priorities. Everyone deserves to live in a decent home where they feel safe. We will set out our policies on accessible new-build housing shortly, and we will make sure that accessibility is a part of the discussion when we bring forward our new housing strategy.
