£33 million made available for housing associations to build affordable homes

Halifax Courier: £33m for family homes

Probably a good thing as it creates homes and jobs but £33 million for 240 properties = £137500 per home, sounds as if the council is being ripped off by the builders.

This so-called 'housing shortage' doesn't actually need an additional penny of taxpayers' money to be sorted out, it just needs more liberal planning laws, shifting taxes from production to land values and shifting spending from Housing Benefit for private landlords to building more social housing.
