Proceeding contribution from Grant Shapps (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 February 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on Housing Waiting Lists.
Housing Waiting Lists
If the hon. Gentleman wants to descend into our policy papers, he is welcome to do so. As I said in my conference speech back in October, for example, an element of council tax should be kept locally when new homes are built. That would be an incentive for local authorities to build more homes and help to ensure that local people got something out of it.
