HOUSING

A UCDP-led government will ensure that:

• Maximum housing value will be extracted from social housing grants
• Good, decent habitable houses will be available for rental purposes
• Corporation rent-to-buy housing developments will be introduced
• The behaviour of unscrupulous landlords will be regulated so that tenants do not pay exhorbitant rents
• Serviced sites will be provided to people who enter the housing market and who can afford the cost of a serviced site. This will allow the people to build according to their individual tastes and affordability
• Contractors in the social housing industry will be closely monitored to ensure that people get the best product possible
