Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Alex Norris and Martin Wrigley

Monday 20th January 2025 Commons Chamber

[Alex Norris]

As my hon. Friend alluded to, RAAC is a devolved matter. The responsibility for ensuring that buildings are safe is, of course, that of the owner, but we keep RAAC under active consideration in case any support is needed.

[Martin Wrigley (Newton Abbot) (LD)]

I draw the House’s attention to my entry on the Register of Members’ Financial Interests. At Teignbridge district council, I oversaw the commencement of council house building for the first time in 30 years. Will the Secretary of State meet me and others to discuss what can be done to make it easier for other councils to build more council homes?
