Conservative — Basildon and Billericay

Speaking in the House of Commons on 2 September 2024

Debate

Social Housing Supply

Contribution

Obviously, social housing is important, and we want to see it in the right places across the country. I cannot understand why this Government are now proposing to reduce the number of new homes in London by 17,000 a year and in areas all around London—including counties such as Essex—by 18,000 a year. Surely one of the most important things that we need to do is increase that supply of social housing, particularly in London.
