Baroness Taylor of Stevenage (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 11 February 2026

Debate

Contribution

We have introduced a whole package of support, working with our colleagues in London to make sure that they are supported and helped to get building the homes they need. In the previous Question, perhaps the noble Lord heard me say that I am working very closely with a whole partnership of people from across the sector on developing the support that young people need to get into home ownership, including on a new ISA that will help with this and making sure that the whole industry is focused on freeing up the system so that it is possible for young people to buy homes. It was good to hear, when I spoke to the sector last week, that both Lloyds and Santander have brought in very low-start mortgage packages. That was just last week. I am very pleased to see that, and I hope that will help some of our young people get out of high-cost renting and enable them to buy their own property.
