Dominic Raab’s claim that immigration has pushed up house
prices by 20% in 25 years relied on a model produced by a quango abolished in
2010, the government has said. The MHCLG, however, has refused to publish this
model or the statistics produced from it. A spokesperson for the MHCLG said:
“Basically, the figure was produced using an analytical model originally
produced by the National Housing and Planning Advice Unit (NHPAU), which incorporates
ONS [Office for National Statistics] housing supply statistics. “So it’s not
something that can be found online – or in published stats. Our officials
provided it to Mr Raab ahead of his interview.” Read more on Inside Housing.
