Report launch: Do we need a more locally flexible approach to housing policy?
To launch a new Localis report on what form a more local approach to housing policy should take, this panel event will focus on why and how housing should form a greater part of the devolution agenda – and what that might look like. The report is the culmination of a research project which has involved three roundtables held across the country, a dozen interviews with key stakeholders and an online survey.
For further information about this event, or the research, please contact kulvir.channa@localis.org.uk.
