HC Deb 21 July 1994 vol 247 cc463-4W
Mr. Pike

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what plans he has to introduce new incentives to first-time buyers to alleviate problems in this section of the market; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Curry

First-time buyers and other home purchasers will continue to benefit from the range of Government policies which have brought about substantial falls in interest rates and have made home ownership more affordable than for many years.
