Two of the Conservatives’ flagship housing policies have
been dropped from a key government document, raising questions about the future
of the plans. The new “single departmental plan” published by the CLG does not
include a single reference to Starter Homes, which form a central plank of the
Government’s commitment to increase home ownership, or of the planned extension
of Right to Buy. The document, which forms part of the guidance for civil
servants working on housing, is in stark contrast to the previous plan
published last year, in which the two policies featured prominently and were
mentioned several times as part of the Conservatives’ housing strategy. Read
