Government commits £ 45M of funding to kick-start UK housebuilding
Housing and Planning Minister Dominic Raab has announced a £ 45 million cash injection into key community projects across the country , helping to facilitate the building of thousands of new homes .
The funding – allocated by the central government to help boost Britain ’ s housebuilding industry , will be distributed to 79 projects from Newcastle to Plymouth . The aim is to support local councils in completing the necessary infrastructure work to unlock viable council-owned land and the building of 7,280 new homes .
The investment into the Land Release Fund is designed to help local councils open up enough council-owned land to build 160,000 homes by the end of the decade and support the Government ’ s pledge of building on average 300,000 homes every year by the mid-2020s . Projects already set to benefit from the funding include a site in Paignton , Devon , where 200 homes are set to be built , in addition to a strategic council-owned site in Lancashire which will unlock over 300 homes .
