About this Event

The Road to Building 1.5m homes

Key to the plans of the new Labour Government is the mission to build 1.5 million homes over this Parliament. Doing so will entail building at levels not seen since the1970s at the same time as the private market is facing a downturn.

What changes does the Government need to implement to achieve this goal? Howwill Labour’s proposed planning reforms impact housebuilding? How do we maximise the proportion of affordable and social homes within this 1.5 million goal? And what support from Government does the housebuilding industry need to innovate and find creative solutions to delivery challenges?
