What the debate was about

Auto-generated

Let us get this scheme passed for these homeowners and let us continue to work with them and the Government to ensure they can reclaim their homes and reclaim their lives. The defective concrete blocks Bill before us underpins a new enhanced scheme to help homeowners with crumbling homes to rebuild and to move on with their lives. You have given us no time to review the bill, no time to debate the bill, no time to even communicate and discuss the consequences of the long-term aspects of the bill to the thousands of homeowners whose lives will be destroyed by not only defective blocks, but your failure to provide true redress for the problem.

Due to the transformation of the scheme, today's scheme is unrecognisable from the original scheme. There are people who, when the scheme is set up, will have issues with their foundations and will not be able to access the scheme.
