A new £18m fund to speed up house building on large sites
and that will provide thousands of new homes where people want to live, has
been announced by the Housing Minister Gavin Barwell. From today councils can bid
for a share of the ‘capacity fund’ to tackle planning issues that can cause
delay and prevent builders from getting on site and starting work quickly. The
money will help accelerate delivery of up to 800,000 homes and infrastructure
across large sites in England and is part of a wider package of measures to
increase the number of much needed homes in local areas. Read more on the
