A committee of MPs is to examine the benefits of modern methods of construction (MMC) in a bid to boost housing supply as part of a new inquiry.
The Housing, Communities and Local Government Committee will hear from industry and academics including Mark Farmer, CEO of Cast Consultancy and author of Modernise or Die, as well as Laing O’Rourke’s technical director, assets and manufacturing, Dr Chris Millard, during the hearings next week.
The government has set a target of 300,000 new homes each year and aims for one million to be built between 2017 and 2020. The session will examine the benefits of MMC and look at how it can boost the housing supply.
