Part of the debate – in the House of Commons at 1:21 pm on 18 July 2002.
I am a little confused. My hon. Friend Mr. Salter has just said that there is a desperate need for housing in his constituency. I do not think that the right hon. Gentleman's constituency is far from my hon. Friend's, yet he tells us that people do not want houses foisted on them. We need to sort out our priorities, which are: houses where they are wanted, at affordable prices, because everybody is entitled to a decent home. That is the challenge.
