The government is ready to release £450m to speed up
delivery of homes on sites of surplus public sector land and encouraging pace
and modern methods of construction as a part of the building process. But such

houses. Announced by communities secretary, James Brokenshire, other measures
include the new proposals for three-year minimum tenancy term and the launch of
a new £100m Community Housing Fund, to deliver affordable housing tailored to
local needs, putting communities in the driving seat. Read the full statement
