Localism Bill

Proceeding contribution from Karen Buck (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 18 May 2011. It occurred during Debate on bills on Localism Bill.
I am grateful to the Minister, who is being extremely generous in giving way. In central London, which is obviously important to me as a central London MP, the changes in housing benefit mean that only 7% of the entire central London broad market rental area for housing benefit or local housing allowance purposes will be accessible to individuals on that benefit. How then can any central London authority obtain accommodation, as a reasonable discharge of duty, in the private rented sector when there is no accommodation to be obtained?
