Motion NDM6109 as amended:

To propose that the National Assembly for Wales:

1. Notes the Welsh Government’s decision to revoke the ‘right to buy’ initiative.

2. Believes that people are more likely to be able to own their own home if the economy is stronger, employment more secure, and public services actively help people to remain in their homes.

3. Recognises that home ownership is not the only option, and that social housing should have parity of status with home ownership.

4. Believes that house building targets could be severely affected by the re-classification of housing association borrowing as public sector debt, and calls on the Welsh Government to take action, including legislation if necessary, to ensure this does not limit the ability of housing associations to finance new home building or home improvements in Wales.
