HC Deb 18 January 1990 vol 165 cc362-3W
Mr. Allen McKay

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he has any proposals to increase the supply of affordable housing for teachers.

Mr. Chope

Government policy aims to ensure that decent housing is within the reach of those in greatest need irrespective of their background or employment. It is open to local authorities to provide help for key workers who have difficulty in finding such accommodation.
