Text
I thank the Member for giving way. Does the Member have a concern that there appears to be a circling of the wagons by the Executive parties on the amendments, which try to remove the part in your motion that says:
"believes that the Executive are failing to address the housing crisis"?
Do the Member and the party opposite have any concern that there has been an attempt to gut that part of the motion?
