Housing Needs For Persons Leaving The Armed Forces

EDM number 24 in 2009-10, proposed by Bob Spink on 18/11/2009.
Categorised under the topic of Veterans.

That this House notes with concern that those leaving the armed forces are not given housing priority by local authorities and must register as homeless if they require social housing; further notes the difficulties involved with entering civilian life; and therefore calls on the Government to ensure that those returning from active service are given housing priority by local authorities.

This motion has been signed by a total of 50 MPs.
