Localism Bill

Proceeding contribution from Toby Perkins (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 17 January 2011. It occurred during Debate on bills on Localism Bill.
I certainly accept a comment made by Campbell Robb, Shelter's chief executive, who said:"““It is unbelievable that at a time when every two minutes someone faces the nightmare of losing their home, the government is proposing to reduce the rights of homeless people who approach their local authorities for help.””" What I also understand about the housing crisis is that the state of the rebuilding programme that was beginning to be implemented is being fundamentally eroded by the Bill. The Government's policies are leading to confusion and chaos and, according to the National Housing Federation, to the loss of 160,000 desperately needed new homes.
