government involvement in the housing association sector. This is a welcome
recognition of housing associations as independent social businesses with a
shared purpose of building quality homes that everyone can afford. It
reinforces the independence of boards and will allow us to secure the long-term
finance needed to build more homes, delivering our ambition to drive up supply.
