Joanna Tuffy (Labour)

I call on the Government to act upon the All-Party Committee on the Constitution report and to take whatever action is necessary in that regard, including the introduction of a cap on the price of land, the building of the promised 10,000 affordable houses so people do not have to wait ten years for a house as was the case for many people in the past and the introduction of measures to ensure developers are forced to pay extra tax if they hoard development land.

I also ask that the Government do something for first-time buyers who are greatly disadvantaged in the housing market. The Government took away from them the one provision which provided them with a little help in acquiring a home.
