Responding to a report from Audit Wales that highlights Labour’s social homes target will not be met, Mark Isherwood MS, Welsh Conservative Shadow Housing Minister, said:
“Labour Welsh Governments caused the housing supply crisis in Wales in the first place, having ignored warnings and proposed solutions over more than two decades by the sector and myself.
“They have continuously missed their house building targets and it is unacceptable that this Labour Government in Wales is falling so far behind on their house building target now. Their policies are reducing affordable housing supply and their focus on tourism and second homes is deflecting from the wider need to deliver more housing.
“The Welsh Conservatives’ plans would ensure more homes, both market and affordable, are built and empty homes are brought back into use.”
