The Home Builders Federation has called on the government to do more to accelerate the delivery of homes stuck in the planning system and allow housebuilders to build more quickly.
The HBF used its submission to the budget to ask the chancellor to improve the end-to-end planning process, ensure planning authorities are equipped to deal with increased demand and secure a long-term supply of land.
Stewart Baseley, executive chairman of the Home Builders Federation, said: “If we are to increase supply government needs to work with the industry to develop policies that will allow housebuilders large and small to deliver.”
