Javid Drops Council House Building Hint For White Paper

Sajid Javid dropped a huge hint that councils would get the chance to build again in the Housing White Paper. The document, which has been delayed numerous times, is going to be “a whole new mindset” according to Javid. Speaking at a Local Government Association event, he said: “It wouldn’t be right for me to reveal everything that’s in the white paper before it’s published.  The white paper will set out serious, lasting, long-term reforms that will boost housing supply immediately and for many years to come. A whole new attitude to house building at all levels – in central government, in the building industry and, yes, in local government too.” Read more on the 24housing website.
