Baroness Hamwee (LD)
My Lords, do the Government recognise the connection between this issue and the points raised by the Question asked by the noble Lord, Lord Young of Cookham? There is a shortage of private rental accommodation, and that goes back to the shortage of housing. The two need to be thought about together, and steps taken that many noble Lords are suggesting.
Lord Murray of Blidworth (Con)
The noble Baroness is of course correct.
