An MHK feels it's too early to say whether there'll be an increased need for affordable homes in the fallout from Covid-19.
Julie Edge is the member of the Department of Infrastructure with responsibility for housing.

Mrs Edge says whatever the outcome of the pandemic, the focus should be on providing homes to those most in need:
