About two million council-built properties have been sold to tenants at significantly discounted prices under the Right To Buy ( RTB ) scheme since it was introduced by Thatcher’s Conservative government in the early 1980s .
Historically, money raised from selling off council houses has not gone far towards building new ones.
Labour deputy prime minister Angela Rayner has said recently she may impose restrictions so that people who move into newly built council houses will not be able to buy them in the future.
In future councils will be able to use all that money from private developers into projects.
The Local Government Association ( LGA ) says there is a "serious housing shortage in this country" In 2012 , the Conservative-led government increased the discount a tenant could receive when buying their home.
Labour has said the discount will be reduced to between 16,000 and 38,000 .
