BPF welcomes James Brokenshire as new Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government (HCLG)

Melanie Leech, Chief Executive, British Property Federation comments on the appointment of James Brokenshire as the new Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government (HCLG):

“While it is disappointing to lose Sajid Javid from housing, we welcome James Brokenshire and look forward to working with him to drive forward the government’s multi-tenure approach to new housing delivery and the policy changes to the National Planning Policy Framework. These changes underpin the government’s agenda on so many levels – providing the right homes in the right places will increase UK productivity, economic growth and social well-being in the long-term.”
