Contour Homes And Ferguson Court Lift

EDM number 79 in 2013-14, proposed by Gerald Kaufman on 14/05/2013.
Categorised under the topics of Companies, Housing, Housing standards and Social rented housing.

That this House condemns Contour Homes for its culpable negligence with regard to Ferguson Court in the constituency of the right hon. Member for Manchester, Gorton; regards it as inexcusable that its failure in its duty has meant that the lift at Ferguson Court has been out of order since October 2012; understands that, due to its incompetence and lack of concern, the lift will not be repaired or replaced until 30 July at the earliest, a period of nine months in which elderly and disabled tenants have been unable to cope to the extent that some of them have been unable to leave their homes; takes the view that Contour Homes has failed in its duty and role as social landlords; and calls on the relevant authorities to consider actively whether Contour Homes should be allowed to continue as social landlords.

This motion has been signed by a total of 3 MPs.
