Housing Supply

Proceeding contribution from Kris Hopkins (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 9 July 2014. It occurred during Opposition day on Housing Supply.

No, I am going to continue.

The key aim is to expand capacity, and one of the ways we are doing that is by encouraging—right across the country—the private rented sector. Thousands of individuals rent their homes, and the vast majority of them rent their homes from good landlords, but there are a few who are damaging the market and failing their tenants, and that is why this Government have set about introducing powers to pursue those individuals and have put moneys out there for councils to make sure we can pursue and prosecute those individuals who fail their tenants.
