APPG for Civic Societies debates the Housing White Paper

Editor News

Civic Voice [Alliance member] last week hosted its second APPG for Civic Societies event of the year, which debated the Housing White Paper.

Joan Humble, Civic Voice chair finished by stating our stance on the Housing White Paper. She was pleased to see the focus on delivering the homes the nation needs but was cautious about the White Paper’s proposals to open more land for development and speed up decision making. She asked for the Government to take a collaborative approach with the local community to deliver homes the country wants, as well as needs.
