HC Deb 10 June 2003 vol 406 c735W
Mr. Drew

To ask the Deputy Prime Minister what plans he has to include further education lecturers within the category eligible for key worker housing. [117554]

Mr. McNulty

From 2004–05, funding for the provision of key worker housing will be integrated into the Housing Corporation's affordable housing programme and will target key public sector workers. The Housing Corporation expects to invite bids for key worker housing schemes at the same time as bids for other affordable housing schemes, in the autumn 2003. It will be made clear at that stage which key worker groups will qualify for assistance, taking into account the advice of regional housing boards.
