520			_aJoseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF) Housing Market Taskforce outlines its recommendations for reducing housing market volatility in the UK. Volatility in the housing market is regarded as a key factor in driving boom and bust property cycles in the UK. Recommendations include improving housing supply to limit volatility in the long run, using credit controls and reforming taxation to limit volatility in the short run, promoting financial capability among borrowers and responsible lending combined with an improved safety net to limit mortgage arrears and repossessions. Alternatives to home-ownership are also considered.
