Why are we becoming ever more reliant on approved housing bodies as opposed to local authorities? Why has that slippage occurred? The AHBs and local authorities are borrowing nearly equal amounts so obviously property development by both is almost equal. What is wrong with the system that over 50% of funding is now going to approved housing bodies? Is there a glitch in the system in the sense of taking too long for decisions to be made?
