Housing Benefit

EDM number 11 in 1993-94, proposed by Paul Tyler on 18/11/1993.

That this House calls on Her Majesty's Government to maintain housing benefit levels; expresses concern that any proposals to reduce benefits may deepen the poverty trap and increase disincentives for people to find work; and therefore calls on the Chancellor of the Exchequer and the Secretary of State for Social Security to take urgent steps to reinforce the housing benefit system and ensure rented social housing remains affordable to those in housing need.

This motion has been signed by a total of 78 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
