Housing in Parliament
Engaging parliamentarians is an important aspect of Northern Housing Consortium activity.
We seek to do this by ensuring that Members of Parliament receive timely information about the role of housing across the North. We do this through:
All Party Parliamentary Group for Housing in the North
The APPG for Housing in the North meets regularly in Parliament to discuss key issues facing the housing sector in the North.
On-the-day Briefings
Our ‘on-the-day briefings’ are sent to members after any key policy proposals or spending announcements. Designed to be a Northern-focused synopsis of the areas of policy affecting the housing sector, we will capture everything we feel is relevant to help you understand and negotiate major government announcements and changes.
Consultation Responses
To ensure NHC members are able to anticipate, understand, influence, and drive forward the policy agenda impacting on their business concerns and operating environment, we will ensure the NHC has a strong external profile with decision makers and influencers.
In order to build an appropriate policy framework, the NHC will engage with its members to develop guidance, reports, position papers and consultation responses.
