Bringing UK public sector borrowing rules into line with
international practice would free councils to build an extra 60,000 homes over
the next five years. This is the central message of Treating Council Housing

and updates the argument developed in Let's Get Building, published with ARCH's
support last year. Its launch is timely as it highlights just how tame and
lacking in imagination is the Government's proposal to deliver at most 10,000
homes through release of additional borrowing. Download a copy of the report
from the NFA website.
