Democratically-Controlled Housing (EDM1561)

Democratically-Controlled Housing

EDM number 1561 in 2002-03, proposed by Ken Purchase on 08/07/2003.

That this House deplores the pejorative use of the term 'social housing' by housing professionals and right-leaning politicians, to distinguish homes in the collective ownership of democratically elected councils and housing mutuals, from homes in individual ownership or the ownership of mortgage companies; and believes that all housing is part of the infrastructure built for social purposes, and should be undifferentiated by tenure.

This motion has been signed by a total of 28 MPs.
