Homelessness Reduction Bill

Proceeding contribution from Emma Reynolds (Labour) in the House of Commons on Friday, 28 October 2016. It occurred during Debate on bills on Homelessness Reduction Bill.

I welcome my hon. Friend’s focus on the housing crisis and the failure of the Government to deal with it. Obviously, successive Governments have failed to build enough homes. May I bring him back to his point about supply? Is it not the case that some of the Government’s policies, such as forcing councils to sell council homes and watering down section 106 agreements to focus purely on starter homes, rather than council homes, are making the problem much, much worse?
