520 _aSets out Barker's analysis and aspirations for housing taking into account the government response to her review of housing supply. Puts forward the view that housing policy is a long-running problem in the UK and that the UK is not the only country where the planning regime has become the seriously disputed battleground between those supporting and those opposing new housing development. Argues against government criticisms of her review. She hopes that the UK will move towards a housing market which is more responsive to demand, where decision-making is better and swifter, where development gains are taxed logically and environmental costs properly assessed. She would like to see continued improvements in social housing and a rigorous approach to subsidies for sub-market home ownership. However she is cautious about the speed of achieving the desired level of new housing supply and a better functioning market. Footnotes.
