Housing secretary Robert Jenrick is encouraging more
housebuilders to reopen their sites after Persimmon, Taylor Wimpey and Vistry
said they were remobilising jobs. This morning Persimmon, the country’s biggest
firm by profit, announced it was reopening mothballed sites from Monday with
its chief executive warning that individuals who flouted the firm’s new safety
protocols would be subject to disciplinary action and removed from site. Taylor
Wimpey yesterday said its sites would begin a phased reopening from 4 May while
Vistry said the “majority” of its projects would start up again from Monday.
Jenrick told Housing Today: “I welcome developers reopening sites following
careful consideration of public health guidance.” Read more on Housing Today.
