Heidi FinCommenting ahead of the United Kingdom’s Spring Statement on Wednesday 26th March, Timothy Douglas, Head of Policy and Campaigns at Propertymark, tells FM Magazine:
“With housing playing a key part in the UK Government’s plan for change, the Spring Statement must ensure government policy protects the delivery of more social and affordable housing and local authorities have the resources they need across planning, enforcement and infrastructure.
“Policymakers must also fully understand the need to reform housing benefits so they reflect real rental costs, and the UK Government must continue to target resources to tackle the cladding crisis and improve building safety to help boost economic growth.”
