CBI COMMENTS ON GOVERNMENT PLANS TO RELEASE LAND FOR NEW HOMES

Latest News Tue, Mar 22, 2016 4:57 PM

The CBI today reacted positively to the announcement that the Government plans to release publicly-owned land for the development of up to 100,000 new homes.

Dr Neil Bentley, CBI Deputy Director-General, said:

“We’re facing a housing crisis, and this will go some way towards making more land available for new homes.

“While today’s announcement is a step in the right direction, the Government should also work with local councils to loosen their grip on local authority-owned land.

“Beyond this, we need the Government to speed up the planning system.”
