On Tuesday 4h March Alistair Strathern MP introduced his Ten Minute rule bill on Housing Estates. A well informed and articulated speech which we strongly support. We thanks him for securing the time for this and note again cross party support for the bill, which will have a second reading in July. You can read the text in Hansard here or watch the video from parliament tv below:
Although ten minute rule bills (private members bills) do not usually make it into law, they are a great way to put pressure on the government and keep the issue alive.
Simply put, his bill proposes a right to manage for estate dwellers to obtain more accountability with the ability to hire and fire management agents, minimum standards for construction and timescales for adoption.
Was this bill read for a second time on the 13th of June? As i cannot find any update.
We believe that it was pushed back due to the long debate on the Assisted Dying Bill
