Tellers for the Noes :
Mr. Jack Thompson and
Mr. Eric Illsley.
Question accordingly agreed to.
Mr. Deputy Speaker-- forthwith declared the main Question, as amended, to be agreed to.
Resolved,
That this House welcomes the fact that the Government is set to surpass its manifesto commitment to produce 153,000 homes in the first three years of this Parliament by 25,000 ; notes with approval the reduction in the number of families accepted as statutory homeless and temporarily housed in bed and breakfast accommodation ; notes that the size of the nation's housing stock has grown faster than population growth over the last 15 years and its quality has improved and that the mortgage rate is now at its lowest since the 1960s as a result of the Government's economic policies ; commends the Government's policies to secure decent housing for those in need, to provide a safety net for vulnerable people faced with losing their home and to provide more opportunities for home ownership ; and calls on Her Majesty's Opposition to condemn the actions of those Labour-controlled councils who wasted taxpayers' money through mismanagement of their housing stock, failure to collect rents and the imposition of high council taxes.
