ONE of the big topics of conversation in Witney and West Oxfordshire is housing.

Why is it that since the Conservative Party is leading on this, that there is currently no member of the West Oxfordshire District Council cabinet responsible for [solely] housing and thus ensuring that this is the top priority of the council to deal with.

1: Address the housing waiting list for local people

2: Provide affordable housing for local residents

3: Cost infrastructure requirements for new houses in current Local Plan

4: Fund infrastructure requirements and social housing needs

5: Query current housing associations’ performance indicators on quality of housing, maintenance and reduction of housing waiting lists.
