The government’s council house building drive will come
at the expense of fewer new units constructed by housing associations. The
independent Office for Budget Responsibility said it expected new council house
construction of 20,000 units over the period as a result of the lifting of the HRA

house building, with every two new council houses resulting in roughly one less
new private house, meaning the net impact on new housing supply from lifting
the cap would be only 9,000. Read more on the Independent website.
