HCA To Channel All Government Land Sales

The Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) has been given a central role in plans to sell enough government land to build more than 160,000 new homes, after it was announced a separate new body would be created to take on ownership of government land and property. The Spending Review said the new body would be launched in March 2017. The HCA has now confirmed that all land marked for sale would be transferred to the agency from the new body. The HCA previously acted as the disposal agency for the CLG and had an administration role for other departments. The initiative is being delivered by the existing Government Property Unit, with the Cabinet Office as the lead department. Read more on Inside Housing.
