What went wrong? Additional powers for the new Homes England among raft of housing policies announced in Budget. By Tamsin Rutter and Liz Bates. The Homes and Communities Agency, the non-departmental public body that funds new affordable housing, is to be expanded and renamed Homes England, the chancellor announced in his Budget today.

Philip Hammond said the new body will bring together "money, expertise, and planning and compulsory purchase powers" and have "a clear remit to facilitate delivery of sufficient new homes" and improve affordability. Treasury documents stated that Homes England will have a stronger ability to use investment and planning powers to intervene more actively to free up land for housebuilding.
