All of us in this chamber have constituents who are making major life decisions—delaying children, spending two hours in a car every day getting to and from work—because they can't find the housing that they need. It's not good enough. That is why our government is so committed to making a difference to this problem. Right now, the parliament has the chance to do just that. Our Help to Buy legislation will back 40,000 childcare workers, teachers and apprentices into homeownership where they would otherwise have no chance of getting into the housing market.
