As I said, we would have liked to remove the chapters on the forced sale of council housing and the mandatory rent rises, but we cannot do so because of time. I therefore wish to withdraw amendment 131, to which we shall no doubt return in the Lords. I will, however, press amendment 142, which seeks to protect security of tenure for council tenants, and in due course my right hon. Friend Sadiq Khan will press amendment 89.

I beg to ask leave to withdraw the amendment.

Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
