Lord Jamieson (Con)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 15 June 2026

Debate

Social Housing Bill [HL]

Contribution

I believe the Minister made a very helpful clarification, and I want to ensure that I heard correctly that it would be up to the local council to have the right of first refusal. Therefore, somebody who owns a right-to-buy house would have to contact only the local council and give it the opportunity of right of first refusal. Just for clarity, I am assuming that, in two-tier areas, it would be the council which has the housing responsibilities.
