Prescott's Plan for Housing
John Prescott's Department (ODPM) published a five year strategy to tackle the housing shortage for key and low paid workers.
Its aim is to offer everyone the opportunity of a decent home at a price they can afford. It includes: · - help for 80, 000 First Time Buyers and Key Workers to own a home;
- Homebuy, which could enable up to 300, 000 social tenants to buy a share in their home;
- moveUK - a new system bringing together information about jobs and homes;
- extending choice-based lettings nationwide; and
- action to halve numbers living in temporary accommodation by 2010.
The document together with information on all these initiatives can be found on the ODPM website at: http://www.odpm.gov.uk/stellent/groups/odpm_about/documents/divisionhomepage/033928.hcsp
