The new Government may not have won itself any friends when it described the grey belt as "ugly" - but it's right. These are sites - about 11,000 of them - within the green belt that effectively let the green belt down, and are ripe for development. But there's an even uglier prospect in view - which is that the Government risks building 1.5 million non-sustainable houses on these sites. It's all to do with a recent report into construction competence in key sustainability disciplines like engineering services - and you can read more in our short article ➡️ https://lnkd.in/dxbZe2Cj #greenbuilding #buildingdesign #greenbuildings #greenbelt #skillsshortage
