Child Poverty Bill

My Lords, I apologise for detaining the Committee and the Minister further. Looking back at the answers that he has given, could he say a little more—or perhaps write to me—about social housing and the steps that have been taken since 1997 to invest in it? What he said about decent homes probably covers that to a large degree. Is the fund for social housing being replenished? It causes a lot of dissatisfaction and unrest in some areas when outsiders are perceived as coming in and taking social housing that is in short supply. In some areas it gives rise to a lot of tension. It would be comforting to know what the Government are doing about that.
