HOUSE PRICE CHANGES

Motion Text

That this House notes that while house prices in the UK as a whole have risen a massive 77.1 per cent. over the last five years, in the North East this figure is just 3.7 per cent.; recognises that without Government assistance these areas are likely to fall into disrepair and begin a cycle of decline; and calls on the Government to encourage businesses to relocate to the North East to take advantage of the area's many advantages and assist in the regeneration of the region.
