Landscape under the new Government

Propertymark has a formidable reputation for speaking out about the needs of the sector to government and politicians and we are regularly consulted on a broad range of issues. In the latest in our series of monthly political and government update webinars, Timothy Douglas, Henry Griffith, and Tim Thomas from our Policy and Campaigns team will reflect on the manifesto commitments of the new Government and what this means for the housing sector, plus members will get an update on our ongoing engagement with Ministers and the UK Government.
