英国改革党曾呼吁禁止外国公民入住持牌合租房和公共住房，这一动议遭威尔士议会多数票否决。
Reform has called for foreign nationals to be barred from licensed house-shares and social housing, in a motion rejected by a majority of the Senedd.
在周三的一场激烈辩论中，该党辩称，多人合租房（HMO）是“我们错乱的庇护系统的骨干”，并坚称“英国公民必须居于首位”。
In a heated debate on Wednesday, the party argued that houses of multiple occupation [HMOs] were the "backbone of our deranged asylum system" and that "British citizens must come first".
威尔士民族党住房大臣西安·格温利安（Sian Gwenllian）指责改革党企图把家庭赶到街头，并表示只有极少数合租房被庇护寻求者使用。
Plaid Housing Minister Sian Gwenllian accused Reform of wanting to turf families onto the streets, and said only a small number of HMOs were used by asylum seekers.
其他威尔士议会议员则辩称，这项政策将对学生、合法在英工作的劳工甚至爱尔兰公民产生影响。一名改革党议员表示，该政策不适用于拥有定居身份的欧盟公民。
Other Senedd members argued the policy would impact students, workers able to live in the UK legally and even Irish citizens. A Reform MS said it would not apply to EU citizens with settled status.
改革党议员乔·马丁（Joe Martin）表示，住在公共住房中的外国公民如果在三个月内找不到私有住房，就应被驱逐出境。
Reform MS Joe Martin said foreign nationals living in social housing should be deported if they could not find privately-owned homes within three months.
格温利安称这一想法“不人道”，并表示听到这些言论是“威尔士议会非常、非常悲哀的一天”。
Gwenllian called the idea "inhumane" and said it was a "very, very sad day for this Senedd to hear those comments".
周三晚上，该党提出了一项动议，称威尔士政府应“彻底改革多人合租房的许可制度以及公共住房的申请资格规则，以终止外国公民获取合租房和公共住房的途径，并在必要时与英国政府合作”。
On Wednesday evening the party tabled a motion that said the Welsh government should "overhaul houses in multiple occupation licensing and social-housing eligibility rules to end access to HMOs and social housing for foreign nationals, including working with the UK government where necessary".
该动议遭到议员否决，其中57票反对，31票赞成。即使该动议获得通过，也不具约束力。
The motion was rejected by MSs, with 57 voting against, and 31 for. It would not have been binding if it was passed.
一项得到威尔士政府和工党支持、旨在支持庇护寻求者“公平且可持续的分散安置安排”的修正案以57票赞成、31票反对获得通过。
An amendment backed by the Welsh government and Labour, which supported "fair and sustainable dispersal arrangements" for asylum seekers was passed with 57 for, and 31 against.
改革党在其威尔士议会选举竞选期间曾呼吁将公共住房留给威尔士本地人。戈尔高韦（Gŵyr Abertawe）的改革党议员弗兰西斯卡·奥布赖恩（Francesca O'Brien）表示：“我们应该优先考虑我们自己的家庭、退伍军人以及那些为我们伟大国家做出过贡献的人。”
Reform called for social housing to be reserved to Welsh people during its Senedd election campaign Francesca O'Brien, Reform MS for Gŵyr Abertawe, said: "We should be prioritising our own families, our veterans, and those who have contributed to our great country.
“外国人不应获得市议会和社会住房的资格，也不应获得我们市议会许可的多户住宅（HMO）的资格。”她说，多户住宅是我们疯狂庇护体系的“支柱”。
"Foreign nationals should not have access to council and social housing, and they should not have access to HMOs that our council license." She said HMOs were the "backbone of our deranged asylum system".
该党的保罗·马尔（Paul Marr），来自塞雷迪金-彭弗罗（Ceredigion Penfro），表示他的选民担心庇护申请人在“天黑后”抵达多户住宅，且对成员几乎没有解释。
The party's Paul Marr, of Ceredigion Penfro, said constituents of his were concerned about asylum seekers arriving in HMOs "after dark, with little explanation to members".
“天黑后抵达并不构成违规，但负责人的沉默让恐惧加剧，问题得不到解答，”他说。
"Arriving after dark does not establish wrongdoing, but silence from those responsible leaves fears growing and questions unanswered," he said.
他说：“关于多户住宅，我们的立场很明确：移民政策必须与住房容量相匹配，英国公民必须放在首位。”
He said: "On HMOs, our stance is clear: immigration policy must reflect housing capacity and British citizens must come first."
改革党（Reform）的约翰·克拉克（John Clark），来自班戈-康威-蒙（Bangor Conwy Mon），表示：“外国人的多户住宅已成为回避艰难政治选择的手段。威尔士没有多余的家庭住宅库存。”
Reform's John Clark, of Bangor Conwy Mon, said: "HMOs for foreign nationals have become the mechanism by which hard political choices are avoided. Wales does not have a spare stock of family homes."
他补充道：“每一套改为多户住宅的家庭住宅，都是从本地家庭的市场中抽走，转而进入支付更高的市场。”
He added: "Every family home converted into a HMO is a home taken out of the market for a local family and put into a market that pays better." Conservative MS for Sir Fynwy Torfaen, Peter Fox, accused Reform of not making a serious attempt to solve pressures on housing.
保守党议员（MS）彼得·福克斯（Peter Fox），代表西芬威-托尔芬（Sir Fynwy Torfaen），指责改革党没有认真尝试解决住房压力。他说，这项“抢眼的议案”“不仅会影响他们想要讨论的群体”。
He said the "headline-grabbing motion" would "not just affect the groups they want to talk about".
“它会影响在威尔士大学就读的外国学生租住多户住宅的房间，会影响合法来到这里工作的人员，也会影响在共同旅行区受保护权利的爱尔兰公民。”福克斯还表达了对该议案可能影响拥有定居身份的欧盟公民的担忧。改革党议员汤姆·蒙哥马利（Tom Montgomery）在议会中表示，该政策不会影响他们。
"It would affect foreign students renting rooms in HMOs while studying at Welsh universities, it would affect workers who have come here legally, and it would affect Irish citizens whose rights are protected under the common travel area." Fox also expressed concerns that the motion could impact EU citizens with settled status. Reform's Tom Montgomery told the Senedd the policy would not affect them.
威尔士绿党领袖安东尼·斯劳特（Anthony Slaughter）称改革党“可耻地再次争辩说我们需要照顾我们自己”。
The Green's leader in Wales, Anthony Slaughter, said Reform were "disgracefully arguing again that we need to look after our own".
卡迪夫-佩纳斯（Caerdydd Penarth）议员指责改革党“制造恐慌”，并试图制造分裂。
The Caerdydd Penarth MS accused Reform of "fear-mongering" and trying to cause division.
他说：“我代表威尔士最具多样性的选区，而这种多样性造就了今天的卡迪夫。”
He said: "I represent the most diverse constituency in Wales and its diversity makes Cardiff what it is today.
世界各地的人们选择将卡迪夫作为自己的家园，而卡迪夫的居民绝不会允许你们分裂我们的社区。
"People from around the world have chosen to make Cardiff their home and the people of Cardiff will not allow you to divide our communities."
威尔士民族党弗林特-雷克瑟姆选区议员马克·琼斯表示赞同：“我们今天所看到的情况是，有人故意将外国人与寻求庇护者混为一谈，故意将领取福利金的人与外国人混为一谈。”格温莉安表示，只要“HMO受到本地监管和管理”，它们就能帮助威尔士的每个人“获得安全、温暖且价格合理的住所”。
Plaid Cymru Fflint Wrecsam MS Marc Jones agreed: "What we've seen today is people deliberately conflating foreign nationals with asylum seekers, deliberately conflating people on benefits with foreign nationals." Gwenllian said HMOs can play a part in giving everyone in Wales "access to a safe, warm and affordable home", as long as "they are regulated and managed locally".
“改革方案称要终止外国人对社会住房的获取权。这就是你们的政策。这是否意味着那些拥有合法居留权的家庭——包括他们的子女——会被要求离开家园，被赶出街头？”她认为，马丁的言论表明答案正是如此。
"Reform says end access to social housing for foreign nationals. That's your policy. Does that mean that families who have a legal right to be here - families and their children - would be asked to leave their homes, turfed out onto the streets?" She argued Martin's comments showed that it did mean that.
格温莉安指出，HMO是“共享住宅，而非移民类别。它们为需要住房的学生、年轻专业人士及其他人群提供住所，其中只有极少数用于安置寻求庇护者”。
Gwenllian said HMOs were "shared homes, not an immigration category. They provide homes for students, young professionals and others who need housing, and only a small minority are used to house asylum seekers".
她补充道：“HMO需要获得许可证，因为这类住宅规模更大，风险也更高。当本地因素有充分理由时，地方当局还可以扩大许可证的适用范围。
She added: "You need a licence for HMOs, which are larger and face greater risks, and local authorities can expand the licensing requirement when local factors justify that.
“他们可以设定条件、检查房产，甚至可以处罚并禁止不安全住所的使用，同时也能追究房东的法律责任。”现行法律规定，HMO若楼层数至少为三层、居住人数达到或超过五人且组成两个或更多家庭，以及卫生间和浴室为共用，则必须获得许可证。
"They can place conditions, search properties, they can actually penalise and prevent unsafe accommodation from being used, and they can prosecute landlords too." Existing legislation requires HMOs to be licensed where they are at least three storeys high, have five or more people making up two or more households, and where toilets and bathrooms are shared.
