Olympic Village
EDM number 1505 in 2008-09, proposed by George Galloway on 18/05/2009.
Categorised under the topic of Social rented housing.
That this House notes that following the de facto nationalisation of the construction of the Olympic village, public investment in the project is now standing at £650 million; further notes the enormous levels of overcrowding and long council housing waiting lists in the host boroughs of Newham and Tower Hamlets; and believes that all 2,800 flats that will result from this public investment in the Olympic village, once the Olympics has finished, should be entirely reserved for letting as council housing.
This motion has been signed by a total of 17 MPs.
