Cardiff council is committed to building 600 new homes over the next 10 years, built to the highest energy standards, and that’s created an extra 250 jobs. This is great news, as it’s the first time that Cardiff council has built homes for a generation, but more needs to be done. Even the Tories are recognising that there is a housing crisis. Whether they’ll actually do anything about it is another matter.

How can the Welsh Government ensure that local authorities, now that they’ve got themselves out of the housing revenue account, are going to be able to use their clout to borrow on excellent terms in order to build a lot more council housing?
