Ministerial CorrectionsThere are nearly 200,000 fewer council housing properties today than there were in 2010. How have a Government who are committed to levelling up allowed that to happen?
Because we have given people the opportunity to become home owners for the first time in a generation. I am proud of the fact that we have done that, but my right hon. Friend and I are determined that we will do all we can with our £12 billion affordable homes programme to create more homes in constituencies such as that of the hon. Gentleman.

Friend and I are determined that we will do all we can with our £11.5 billion affordable homes programme to create more homes in constituencies such as that of the hon. Gentleman.
