Housing

In members’ statements, the debate turned to housing and the construction industry. William Stevenson of the Conservatives described a constituent in Carstairs who worked 26 years at a siding company and is being laid off in October, saying slow housing starts and tariffs have left the company without work. He argued that the government has imposed too many rules on builders and has not fixed the housing shortage, and called on the Liberals to adopt the Conservative plan to bring costs down.Written by AI from the debate.
