The built environment has an important role to play in post-COVID economic recovery – with projects that can stimulate clean growth and create jobs in every part of the country – supporting the levelling up agenda and improving people’s health and wellbeing at this time has never been more important.
The paper outlines key policy recommendations across three areas:
- New homes and buildings
