Rebecca asks a question on the first day back in Parliament.
In oral questions of the Ministry for Housing, Communities and Local Government today, Rebecca secured a commitment from the Minister for Housing, Communities and Local Government that he would meet with a delegation from Plymouth to discuss the development of city centre sites that will meet the housing needs of Devonport’s dockyard workforce.

Rebecca: Thank you Mr Speaker.
Devonport Dockyard in Plymouth has a strong future proudly refitting the Royal Navy's submarines. However, to enable this to happen, the city needs amongst other things, more housing, the location for this housing exists already in the city centre, but it will require a national effort to deliver it.
Will the minister agree to meet with a cross-party delegation from Plymouth to take forward these vital plans?
Minister: I am well aware of the case she cites and the city centre location I am more than happy to meet with that delegation.
