Yesterday I attended the @HomeBuildersFed Policy Conference 2024 - a must for any policy wonk in the industry! We heard Dame Kate Barker's CBE reflections on the Barker Review of Housing Supply 20 years on and what the industry can expect looking ahead.
Giving the John Stewart Memorial presentation at #hbfpolicy24, Dame Kate Barker, author of the 2004 Barker Review of Housing Supply, expresses her “disappointment” over the overall outcome of her review, intended in part to prompt government to increase affordable homes supply.
@SeemaMalhotra1 @NHBC @fmbuilders @thehousingforum @BritWoodFed @HomeBuildersFed @FutureHomesHub @theCIOB @nfbuilders Fascinating views expressed today and a clear direction difference from the Govt, enabled by your being ahead of the Conservatives (in rhetoric terms) of understanding the benefits of planning reform & certainty. I left feeling we might actually be able to solve the skill crisis.
📣 STORY: Housing Supply 🏴 Construction began on 149,000 new homes last year, a fall from 176,000 the year before. @HomeBuildersFed says short-term politics is getting in the way of increasing England's housing supply. Stories: app.radarai.com
Beyond Barker by @HomeBuildersFed shows again how UK housing/planning policy always moves against housebuilding when market capacity to deliver big but supports when market appetite isn’t there. Hopefully 2025 creates a genuine opportunity to break cycle hbf.co.uk/news/20-years-…
