New chancellor Rachel Reeves announces mandatory housing targets 'to get Britain building again' Rachel Reeves has announced mandatory housing targets and an end to the onshore wind ban to get "Britain building again". The UK's first ever female chancellor said Labour will create a new taskforce "to accelerate stalled housing sites in our country". She promised her government would build 1.5 million homes over the next five years, as pledged in Labour's election manifesto. "We're not in the business of reneging on our manifesto commitments," she said in her first speech as chancellor after Labour won the general election last Thursday. "We've received that strong mandate. We're going to deliver on that mandate." Ms Reeves announced the government will: • Restore mandatory housebuilding targets • Build 1.5m homes by the end of this parliament - including affordable and council homes • End the onshore wind farm ban • Create a new task force to accelerate stalled housing sites • Support local authorities with 300 additional planning officers across the country • Review planning applications previously turned down that could help the economy • Prioritise brownfield and greybelt land for development to meet housing targets when needed • Reform the planning system to "deliver the infrastructure that our country needs" • Set out new policy intentions for critical infrastructure in the coming months. Commenting on the speech by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Stephen Phipson, Chief Executive of Make UK, said: “Industry will welcome such a bold statement of intent which is a clear indication of a Government that has well and truly hit the ground running, especially in ensuring that key institutions are focused on promoting economic growth with their shoulders to the wheel. “The current anaemic rate is simply not sustainable if we want the investment in our public services and vital investment in critical infrastructure and, the advantage the UK now clearly has as a stable place to do business and, attract investment, is one we must not waste . An Industrial Strategy will be central to boosting growth, especially working in partnership with Government at national and regional level and, tackling the skills crisis must be at the heart of boosting growth in the first instance, with a fundamental and widespread review of the Apprentice Levy and Technical Education system as a starting point. Additionally, the ambitious target for new homes can be the catalyst to unlock the potential of fully modular homes built in British factories. “Turning the growth taps on will not be easy in the current uncertain international climate and a difficult inheritance. But, industry will commend this announcement that makes quite clear that it is the laser like focus of the new Government.” On Housing, Daniel Paterson, Director of Policy Make UK Modular added: “Make UK Modular looks forward to working with the new government on their ambitious building agenda. The Labour Party laid out a bold plan during the run-up to and throughout the election campaign and we welcome the Chancellor's statement today in regard to growth; making homes and infrastructure building central to this. Modular and MMC leaders can and will play their part in realising the growth opportunities available and helping to reach the target of 1.5 million new homes by the end of this parliament. “The Chancellor's commitment to reinstating housing targets, new funding for 300 new planning officers and overhauling the UK's antiquated planning system - issues that Make UK Modular have long called for action on - is both welcome and overdue. “The planned consultation on the National Planning Policy Framework and the drive to adopt universal coverage for local plansis also helpful in the joint goal of getting Britain building again, creating the homes so desperately needed around the whole of the country.”
