CPS Head of Housing and Infrastructure Ben Hopkinson and Robert Colvile, former CPS Director, both responded to the announcement Labour would be reviving Help to Buy as a new scheme, Your First Home.
Ben highlighted the scale of our housing shortage and argued the correct response was building, not adding to the state’s liabilities.
The remarks were covered in City A.M., across housing and construction trade press and by over 20 local newspapers.
