Prime Minister David Cameron has announced new pledges to tackle social deprivation and poverty by transforming ‘sink estates’ around the country.

Writing in the Sunday Times, Cameron affirmed his intentions to deliver a package of measures aimed at radically redeveloping 100 housing estates, by replacing them with high-quality homes or in some cases knocking them down altogether.

In what he labeled ‘an all-out assault on poverty and disadvantage’, Cameron said that a new £140 million fund would be set up to enable the regeneration scheme to begin, with provision for planning, temporary housing and early construction costs.

A new Estate Regeneration Advisory Panel will be established, chaired by Lord Heseltine, which have been set a blueprint report deadline of this year’s Autumn Statement. Heseltine served in Margaret Thatcher’s government and was the minister responsible for the rejuvenation of Liverpool and the London docks in the 1980s.

The first task of the new panel will be to compose a list of post-war estates that would best benefit from re-development. Existing tenants and homeowners have been promised a set of binding guarantees protecting their homes.

Speaking on the Andrew Marr Show, Cameron said that rather than the proposals leading to a decrease in social housing at affordable rents, many more would be built with people being given the chance to buy them via the extended right-to-buy scheme.
