The Government published its Housing Green Paper – “Homes for the future: more Affordable, more sustainable” – on 23 July following a statement by the Housing Minister, Yvette Cooper, to Parliament. This note summarises the main proposals. Further briefing and analysis will be provided on some of the specific areas once we have assessed the range of supporting documents issued with the Green Paper. The Green Paper and all its supporting documents can be accessed via the CLG website using the link below: http://www.communities.gov.uk/index.asp?id=1511923
