“The thrust on affordable housing is timely"

“The thrust on affordable housing is timely and represents a significant step forward in the government’s programme of providing shelter to all. We also welcome the decision to accord infrastructure status to affordable housing schemes – this will allow greater liquidity, at lower cost and help improve supply. The additional benefit is all of this will also provide a meaningful leg up to employment and income generation opportunities in this sector – all measures that we support whole-heartedly”.
