Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

I move amendment No. 39:
In page 11, lines 5 and 6, to delete “in particular houses and duplexes” and substitute “including houses, duplexes and apartments”.
This amendment very simply extends the definition of homeownership to include apartments. For many people apartments are their forever home and many choose to downsize as they get older by purchasing apartments. I will leave it at that. I think there is another amendment there so I will wait for the Minister to respond.
