Conveyancing News: Hip boss disappointed with Tories |
|
| |
Article Published: 27-Apr-2007
The Association of Home Information Pack Providers director general Mike Ockenden has attached the Tory party following their latest opposition to Hips. He says that this attempt to prevent the introduction of the Home Information Pack, is political bias which does not represent democracy.
The campaign against Hips being led by Shadow Housing Minister Michael Gove is not representative of the government. He says: "The public voted for our current government and when doing so, they voted for HIPs. It is very disappointing to see the Tory party follow a stance which is clearly not in the interest of the environment, the consumer nor the entrepreneur in the UK and I would seriously question their motives."
Ockenden continues that the introduction of Hips will have a huge effect on carbon emissions pertaining to existing housing stock and should assist with the improvement of one of the most stressful times in a consumers life, buying and selling a property. He concludes with "The opposition is clearly jumping on the coat tails of those industry bodies who have called for a delay - a delay that is not in the best interests of the consumer. In fact, this appears to be simply opposition for opposition's sake, unless of-course it is driven by some other motive. There is no doubt, the Hip industry is ready."
