New Housing Supply

Proceeding contribution from Clive Betts (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 5 March 2013. It occurred during Estimates day on New Housing Supply.

I will be brief, because the Minister need give only a one-word answer. Is he prepared to look again at the cap on borrowing to fund housing at local authority level? Why is housing the only form of borrowing that local authorities cannot enter into simply because of the prudential rules?
