Nearly half of councils have set up a housing company in
a bid to help deliver new homes, according to a new report. The study, carried
out by academics from University College London (UCL) on behalf of the National
Planning Forum and the Royal Town Planning Institute (RTPI), has estimated that
44% of the 353 local authorities in England have set up their own companies. It
found that two-thirds of councils, or 65%, are directly involved in housing
delivery, with a further 22% considering moving into active provision. Download
the report form the RTPI website.
