Plaid Cymru’s Budget, which included additional funding for social housing, failed to get Senedd approval

Despite this setback, the new Welsh Government promised continued investment in new social homes.  On 14^th July the Senedd voted down the proposed Supplementary Budget, which included an additional £20million of Welsh Social Housing Grant to build an additional 100 new homes for social rent.  Labour refused its support due to a dispute over funding for additional learning needs.  The government said that it would bring back a Supplementary Budget later in the financial year, while reiterating its commitment to increasing its investment in the supply of social housing.
