	The paper suggests that home building could be accelerated by bringing together developers, housing associations, residents, civil society and local businesses to address their concerns and wishes through one decision point, allowing people to take control of housebuilding and shape the future of their neighbourhoods. It argues that this could dramatically increase the supply of new housing.

	Director of ResPublica, Phillip Blond, said, “For too long, housing policy has been controlled by Whitehall, and the lack of local authority involvement has been a primary driver behind the failure to build new homes at the scale needed. The only way that we will mitigate the Whitehall ‘command and control’ model, and an old local authority led model is by introducing a new institution that draws a wide range of partners together to coordinate the building of genuinely affordable and aesthetically pleasing homes, and provide the infrastructure needed for communities to thrive.
