Labour has forced Theresa May to backtrack on ill-conceived plans for supported housing – John Healey MP

John
Healey MP, Labour’s
Shadow Secretary of State for Housing, responding to the House of Commons’
unanimous support for Labour’s motion to protect supported housing, said:

“Under
pressure from Labour, Theresa May has been forced to backtrack on the
Government’s ill-conceived plans for supported housing.

“Now,
after unanimous House of Commons backing for Labour’s motion committing to
safeguard the long-term future and funding of supported housing, any new
Government proposals must reflect the clearly expressed will of Parliament.”
